A globally recognized smart water management leader (WRF-LIFT 2016 - http://liftlink.werf.org/ - and IWRA, Smart Water Management, 2018) in urban stormwater and climate adaptation, RainGrid, Inc. has developed ARGoN (Aggregated Rain Grid Network) systems to create community scale, property-based digital rain harvesting networks serving as a software solution and operational resilience capacity to enhance urban responses to climate variable flood and drought. ARGoN brings the power of AI to residential, institutional or commercial properties together as neural networks learning from ongoing wet weather harvesting, data generation and analytics what the future weather and resilience/adaptation is for a community. Real-time Internet of Things (IoT) managed residential cisterns connect with ARGoN's data visualization and analytics platform to provide decision-making capacity in response to and in anticipation of wet weather events on a property specific and community-wide scale. ARGoN systems represents a unique turnkey design-finance-build-operate (DFBO) combination to significantly reduce the costs of managing a civic stormwater program with property-based GSI.• For municipalities, counties and metropolitan sewer districts, ARGoN reduces the risk of sewer backups, overland flooding and property damage while extending the life of legacy stormwater pond and piped conveyance infrastructure.• For land developers ARGoN offers the opportunity to reduce approval times, pipe diameters and water balance, and stormwater pond area.Aggregated Rain Grid Network Outcomes:• stormwater quantity & quality management• real-time property based GSI data & visual analytics• community & property-owner engagement and customer relationship management• CSO source control• overland runoff reduction• real-time rainwater harvesting and reuse• potable water Demand Side Management • lot level groundwater recharge for watershed planning and balancing
