Terrain profile and its impact on RMS design_ Terrain profiles are generated from geoportal_gov_pl_ Author’s study
| Housing estate | Terrain profile | Description | Characteristic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wolne Miasto | The section done across the plot (from the north to the south). | The topography of the area has great potential in shaping efficient RMS based on gravity water flow. | |
| Zielony Południk | The section done along the lot (from the north-west to the south-east) | The topography of the area took a prime part in the shape of RMS at the estate. The areas placed lower are used as surface retention elements such as major rain gardens. | |
| Nadmorski Dwór | The section done along the plot (from the north-west to the south-east) |
| |
| Idea | The section done along the plot (from the west to the east) | The depression visible on the terrain profile was not visible on the side. The area was mostly flat and water flow was determined by slight infliction of the pavement. | |
| Beauforta | The section done along the plot (from the north-west to the south-east) | The first depression was the emergency reservoir, and the second depression (drop 1m) was not visible on the side. The characteristics were drops in the place of the car park and rises in the place of buildings and inner courtyards. | |
| Sokółki Zielenisz | The section done along the plot (from the south-west to the north-east) | The topography has good potential for shaping RMS, which was noticed and used for open channels. | |
| Nowe Żerniki | The section done along the bottom part (from the west to the east) |
| |
| The section done along the middle part (from the west to the east) | |||
| The section done along the upper part (from the west to the east) | |||
| Mickiewicza | The section done along the plot (from the west to the east) | That difference in height shown on the profile can be observed on the side as a slight depression with greenery. | |
| Jaśminowy Mokotów | The section done along the plot (from the south-west to the north-east) | The visible height difference was in the area of private gardens. During inventory there was no observed significant height differences. | |
| 19 dzielnica | The section done along the plot (from the north-west to the south-east) | The characteristics were high slopes in the inner courtyards that are accessible just for residents. | |
| Żoliborz Artystyczny | The section done along the plot (from the east to the west) | Except for one bigger drop (that is rather a hole, in its shape difficult to use as an RMS element) the area was moderately hilly and had a good potential for shaping RMS. |
