Green Matrix Partners (GMP) provides Pre-Development Hydrology Studies to support the planning, permitting, and optimization of utility-scale energy projects. These studies are essential for evaluating natural site conditions before any modifications occur, minimizing risks and improving project outcomes.
Our Pre-Development Hydrology Studies include:
Desktop Hydrology Study: Utilizes publicly available topographic data to model watershed behavior, assess drainage patterns, and identify potential flood risks.
Final Hydrology Study: Integrates the latest topographic survey data provided by the client, including ALTA surveys, which capture critical manmade structures such as culverts and bridges that influence water movement.
Our hydrology deliverables include:
Shapefiles showing flood depth at 1-ft intervals to visualize water accumulation risks.
Raster and shapefiles depicting water velocities across multiple ranges.
Geospatial analysis that integrates hydrology data with foundation pile plot plans to support layout optimization, Army Corps of Engineers permitting, and other regulatory processes.
These deliverables also serve as critical inputs for our Constraint Map and Geospatial Services, providing developers with a comprehensive framework for identifying risks, refining project layouts, and ensuring environmental compliance.
By focusing on Pre-Development Hydrology Studies, GMP delivers precise insights that enable informed decisions, helping developers minimize risks, manage costs, and improve overall project feasibility.
