An overflow (Streichwehr/Leaping weir) is a component in relief structures and channels for diverting wastewater in different directions. A maximum amount of water flows to the wastewater treatment plant, while excess water (e.g., during heavy rain) is diverted via a sill/weir into a receiving water body. A Streichwehr is an overflow with a weir built parallel to the flow direction; a Leaping weir has a bottom opening. This object is recorded as a point object (Device > Overflow) to ensure topological connections for hydraulic calculations. Using this asset type as a StationEquipmentLine also allows recording the precise position, length, and orientation as a lineobject.
