Reservoir asset types

Note: The asset types that are available to you depend on your access rights and on the asset products that your agency has purchased.
Asset type Special features
Embankment Use the Associated Assets grid to associate other assets with the embankment, such as a spillway that is attached to the embankment or a complex that the embankment is a part of. Several fields indicate structural information about the embankment, such as its dimension, the height of its wave and cutoff walls, and its post-tension measurements. An embankment is any barrier built across a watercourse to impound or divert water.
Instrumentation The Position field shows the instrument's position at the address. The position cannot exceed the maximum number of positions allowed for reservoir instruments at the address, and a position of 0 indicates that the instrument is not in use. Several fields indicate structural information about the instrument, such as its material and its offset value. Use the Name Plate grid to record data from the instrument's name plate, such as its number of amps or voltage. Use the Performance Indicators grid to record a performance reading for the instrument, such as a fuel efficiency reading during a work order. Examples of reservoir instruments include flow meters for measuring water flow rates or piezometers for measuring water pressure. Use the Usage grid in the InfoViewer to record the instrument's usage. Use the Calculation Constant grid to list the calculation constants required for calculating data from the instrument. A calculation constant is an unchanging numerical value that is used in a mathematical formula, such as constant M that represents a reservoir’s normal table height.
Miscellaneous Use the Associated Assets grid to associate other assets with the miscellaneous asset, such as an instrument that is stored in the asset or a complex that the asset is a part of. Several fields indicate structural information about the asset, such as its material, dimensions, and average monthly usage. A miscellaneous asset is an asset that does not fall under any of the existing reservoir asset types, such as a chemical storage container, vehicle, or laptop computer.
Reservoir Use the Associated Assets grid to associate other assets with the reservoir, such as a complex that the reservoir is a part of or a spillway that is connected to it. Several elements indicate structural information about the reservoir, such as its hazard category, its downstream hazard potential, and whether it serves as a harvester of water for potable use. Use the Calculation Constant grid to list the calculation constants required for calculating data from the instrument. A calculation constant is an unchanging numerical value that is used in a mathematical formula, such as constant M that represents a reservoir’s normal table height.
Spillway A spillway is a passageway for surplus water from a reservoir. Use the Associated Assets grid to associate other assets with the spillway, such as a complex that the spillway is a part of or the reservoir that it is connected to. Use the Depth Discharge grid and several other fields to indicate structural information about the spillway, such as crest measurements, capacity, and flood risk data.
Storage basin Use the Associated Assets grid to associate other assets with the basin, such as a complex that the basin is a part of or the reservoir that it is connected to. Use the Depth Capacity, Drainage, and Flood Level grids and several other fields to specify important structural information, including data about the basin's surface area, storage capacity, and minimum operating level.
