About the Wastewater Data Model

The Wastewater module is based on the Utility data model which stores geometry and attribute data separately. The data model contains topics, representations, domains, utilities, topologies, and intersections.

The Data Model Administrator lets you explore wastewater topics, representations, domains, utilities, topologies, and intersections in the data model.

Data Model Elements	Description
Topics	Topics are containers used to organize groups of feature classes and collections of feature class tables.
Representations	A representation is a template you can use to visualize a feature in different locations, and store the geometries in the database. For more information about representations (schematics), see Data Model: Schematics.
Domains	Domains are stored in domain tables (*_TBD) and define the attribute values that are used in forms. For more information about domains, see Data Model: Domain Tables.
Utilities	A utility model provides basic utility network components, which are used in the wastewater application. For more information about utilities, see Overview of the Utility Model.
Topologies	Topologies are used to model objects and phenomena found in the real world. For more information about topologies, see Topology Introduction.
Intersections	Intersections are routines used to calculate intersections between two feature classes. For more information about intersections, see Data Model: Intersections.
