Abstract

This paper shows how to manage reduction of wet weather overflows by conducting TV inspection of sewers using multimedia computer technology and GIS. It shows how GIS can be used for improved inspection and maintenance of sewer systems. The paper proposes a four-step method for implementing a GIS-based TV inspection program. The steps are described in detail with the help of real world examples.
