Chapter 4: Water in the city

Course subject(s) 3. Water in de stad

Hoofdstuk vier van het dictaat gaat over water in de stad. Meten aan water in de stad is anders dan op het platteland omdat de watercyclus anders is. Dit hoofdstuk is opgedeeld in twee belangrijke onderdelen: stedelijke afwatering en drinkwater. De twee belangrijkste metingen die voor stedelijke afwatering in dit hoofdstuk aan bod komen zijn: peilmetingen en debietmetingen. Voor drinkwater is het  belangrijk dat er van de bron tot de tap gecontroleerd wordt wat de kwaliteit van het water is.

The fourth chapter is about measurements in city water. This is different from water measurements in the countryside because the watercycle is different. This chapter is divided into two parts: urban drainage and drinking water. The two most important measurements in urban drainage that are discussed in this chapter are water level and discharge measurements. With drinking water it is important that the condition of the water is known from source to tap.
