At noon on this day, we took the time away from our normal work patterns to visit the City of Colorado Springs offices downtown and speak with Timothy Biolchini, the Stormwater Projects Coordinator. He was very helpful in providing us essential stormwater drainage pipe data and information about current projects that parallel ours within the city, including Envision Shooks Run, a couple miles south of our site of interest. Matt Cooney also attended the meeting, where he made progress with getting permission to fly a drone over our sight, hopefully providing us with valuable digital elevation model (DEM) data to enhance our abilities to conduct computer-driven spatial analyses.
