Ferramenta de apoio ao manejo de águas pluviais urbanas com base em indicadores de sustentabilidade - SAMSAP
Resumo
Many municipalities have problems with the drainage system and the excess rainwater in
certain periods of the year. The management of cities should take into account the
sustainability and for this, the indicators are important tools in helping to making the use and
land use decision and thus avoid risk situations related to urban water. The sustainability
principles guided the development of this research for this, were developed 13 sustainability
principles specific to the management of stormwater based on general principles in the
literature. After surveying the literature of sustainability indicators, they were found 102
indicators and of those, 65 that could be used in the management of rainwater, one of the
indicators selection criteria was the correlation with the specific principles and other direct
relationship with problem. Then we sought in the literature, the problems faced by the
government and the people related to rainwater, were 47 major found this total, 19 were
considered direct problems and the remaining effects caused by these problems. These 19
problems were divided into five dimensions of sustainability: environmental, social,
economic, political, cultural and technological or management. For each problem have been
assigned their respective indicators, a total of 54, leaving at least 2 indicators of the problem.
Using multi-criteria method, priority indicators were selected, that is, those that would be
most suitable for the monitoring of problems, however, in the absence of information
available to these priority indicators can be used side indicators. These indicators served for
the preparation of SAMSAP tool - Support System for Water Management Stormwater,
which will serve for the development of scenarios for monitoring and decision making of
managers and responsible for the management of rainwater.
