Illinois Association for Floodplain and Stormwater Management (IAFSM) 2026

VAPAR presented alongside Farnsworth Group on how AI is being applied to real-world stormwater asset management, featuring a case study from the City of Calumet.

This session explores how municipalities are using AI to move from manual, time-consuming CCTV review toward faster, more consistent, and defensible decision-making for capital planning and maintenance.

In this presentation, you’ll learn:

• Why traditional CCTV review is slow, inconsistent, and difficult to scale
• How AI automates condition assessment and delivers results up to 3× faster
• How to turn inspection data into repair recommendations and cost-based planning outputs
• Key lessons from the City of Calumet’s stormwater program and asset management approach
