   Managua Storm Water Modeling


​Client: IDB/ALMA (Subcontracted by the University of Maryland)
Year: 2016-2017
​

About: Lago staff were included in the team to produce a new Stormwater Master Plan for the City of Managua, Nicaragua. ​

Specifics:
Lago developed several EPA-SWMM5 and RiverFlow2D models covering the different watersheds in the City of Managua, Nicaragua. The existing conditions models were then modified to evaluate proposed flood improvements project in the watersheds and in the drainage network. A training course on the model software, approach used and project model files were provided.
