methods of rain water harvesting in urban area
Answers
Explanation:
The most common technique in urban areas (besides storm water management) is rooftop rainwater harvesting: rainwater is collected on the roof and transported with gutters to a storage reservoir, where it provides water at the point of consumption or is used for groundwater recharge (see also surface and subsurface

There are two ways of using the harvested rainwater: Storing in receptacles. Recharging into the aquifer
Explanation:
A few basic elements are common to all rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems
The catchment area, where the rain falls
The conveyance, or conduit, system that channels the flow of water in a given direction
The first flush (a valve that ensures that run-off from the first spell of rain is flushed out and does not enter the system) and the filter system
The storage area, consisting of tanks/receptacles
The recharge area, where harvested rainwater is used to replenish groundwater
