Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Salton Sea Background: Location: - Southern of California History: - 1905 a dam on Colorado River - rainstorm hit the area. General information: - Lowest surface elevation 277 feet below.. - Largest lake 370 sq. miles. Salton Sea Problems: salinity and drought. Salinity: - The Salton Sea’s salinity is about 54 g/L - The Pacific Ocean’s salinity is around 35 g/L - salt increases 1% every year.

6
The Project Problem: - Where should the pipelines be located? - Where should the solar sites be located around the pipelines? - Factors should be considered.
7
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions First Goal: - determining the optimal location for pipelines Second Goal: - identifying suitable sites for solar energy.
8
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Least-Cost Path Analysis: - connecting two points with a route. - has a source point, destination point, and cost surface. -. Weighted Overlay Analysis: - determining factors. - defining their weighted values. - identifying suitable sites for solar energy

27
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Least-Cost Path - source point. - destination point. - cost surface.
28
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Least-Cost Path
29
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Result - Conclusions Least-Cost Path Analysis: - 275 km. - 68 sea level at Salton Sea. - 60 meter elevation.
30
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions At High Elevation Area. Elevation Profile: - 60 Meters. - 20 Meters (Vertical = elevation in meter, Horizontal = distance in meter)
31
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Slope, Solar Radiation, and Distance from the Pipelines. Slope Factor: - from DEM. - the range values form 0 to 40 degrees. - 4 degrees for each class. - was weighted 25%.
32
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Solar Radiation Factor: - sun light. - elevation. - orientation. - shadows. The Value Range: - between 401993 – 658507 kwh/m²/Day. - suitable area for solar sites. - was weighted 50%.
33
Introduction - Database Design - Implementation - Results - Conclusions Distance from Pipelines: - 500 meter maximum distance. - each class has 50 meters distance. - was weighted 25%
