Abstract | Stormwater harvest system (SWH) offers an alternate feasible solution in dispersing a reliable water supply for urban service delivery. This study explores System of systems (SoS) approach application in analytics dataset available for climate-smart city storage requirement at Jozini area within KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa. 13 indicators (6 climatic variables and 7-socioeconomic parameters) were used as input into logistic regression model (multiple nonlinear) to test the level of relationship between the predictors to SWH storage capacity required under varied climatic condition. The distribution of rainfall at different weibul ranking frequencies of 50%, 75%, and 85% helps in determining the dependable flow storage capacity requirement for proposed climate change scenarios adaptation. As findings, the simulation under 85% dependable monthly rainfall frequency analysis yields the most reliable water supply in the area. Different professionals and decision-makers in urban planning would find usefulness in the employed SoS approach in building an alternate resilient and sustainable water storage requirement for a climate-smart city. |
