Shared Rainwater Harvesting System Using Google Map API And Edge Detection

In this paper, we propose a GIS-based solution for rainwater harvesting in Metropolitan cities. Currently, the rainwater harvesting systems which have been developed are either for a large region that is not developed at all or a region with a scarcity of water. Our paper focuses on developing a system for areas where the deconstruction of existing buildings is not recommended or appreciated. In most metropolitan regions, another major concern for the implementation of rainwater harvesting tanks is the restriction of space. Our suggested system expresses a shared tank concept, where multiple neighboring buildings could share one water storage tank. This would reduce both-the space and expense related to the construction. An estimation of the cost and volume of the tank that needs to be built would given provided by the system.
