During a major storm event, every minute without actionable information is a minute your operations team is working blind. Overflow events in sanitary sewer networks carry serious consequences — regulatory exposure, environmental harm, and costly post-event investigations — yet most municipalities still rely on fragmented, after-the-fact reporting to understand what actually happened in their collection system.
Wet-weather overflow management demands real-time visibility, fast response, and defensible documentation. Doing all three simultaneously — with existing staff and existing data — has historically been out of reach.
What your operations team gains
Live GIS map of your entire network
Color-coded site markers tell operators exactly where overflow conditions are active, elevated, or recently resolved — at a glance, system-wide.
Consistent, configurable real-time alerting
Threshold logic applied uniformly across all overflow sites — green, yellow, orange, red — so your team always knows the severity and status without interpretation.
Automated PDF & CSV event reports
Each overflow event generates a ready-to-submit report with duration, volume, rainfall, and return period — eliminating manual compilation after every wet-weather event.
Auditable overflow event histories
A rolling 30-day table of events per site, plus full historical downloads. Every event timestamped, documented, and available the moment regulators ask for it.
Rainfall return period classification
Each overflow event is automatically contextualized against IDF data — so staff and regulators understand whether an event was a routine rain or a true design storm.
Foundation for real-time control
Built on your existing flowworks data infrastructure — no new sensors required. And when you’re ready to move toward RTC and predictive decision-support, the platform scales with you.
How the platform works
The system publishes directly into your flowworks Apps page, making it available to the operators and administrators you designate — no separate login, no new platform to manage. An interactive GIS map displays your overflow sites and flow monitoring network with live status overlays. Selecting any site opens a drilldown view with current readings, pipe fill graphics, threshold indicators, and the complete overflow event table for that location.
Each site detail view includes live readings for: Depth, Velocity, Flow and 24-hour Rainfall.
As an integrated module within flowworks, the Overflow Alert System works directly with the data you're already collecting – raw and final channels, rain gauges, GIS asset layers, and all – with no new data infrastructure required.

Built for regulatory reporting
When a regulator asks for overflow documentation, your team shouldn't be scrambling. The system produces structured, audit-ready records automatically for every event – with no manual steps between the event and the report.
Bulk PDF download by date range
Download all event PDF reports for a selected month, year, or common range (last 7 days, last 30 days) across all sites — packaged as a single ZIP file, clearly named by site and event date.
