FloodWorks v9.0 Extends Flood Forecasting

06/05/2008

Wallingford Software today announces the release of FloodWorks v9.0, the leading real time flood forecasting and warning software solution. Two significant advances head a large number of feature enhancements in v9.0: the ability to include wastewater and stormwater models within FloodWorks and the direct integration of RADAR data into FloodWorks.

In FloodWorks v9.0 wastewater (InfoWorks CS) and stormwater (InfoWorks SD) models can now be integrated directly into the FloodWorks forecasting system. Outfalls from InfoWorks CS and InfoWorks SD models can be connected directly to existing InfoWorks RS models of river and floodplain areas to provide a more accurate and comprehensive representation of the runoff from urban areas and its contribution to overall flooding.

Earlier releases of FloodWorks used radar data that had been pre-processed into sub-catchment rainfall time series. The new RADAR functionality in FloodWorks v9.0 directly reads raw RADAR images and processes the data into individual sub-catchment time series using polygons defined within FloodWorks configuration manager.

A modular software package, FloodWorks is used extensively for the real-time simulation and forecasting of extreme hydrological and hydraulic conditions within river basins, drainage systems and the coastal zone. Since its launch in 2000 FloodWorks has become recognised as the most advanced real time flood forecasting application in the world with users across the world, particularly in Europe and South East Asia.

Water Management in Eastern England

The eastern part of England also is partly reclaimed from the sea, centuries ago. The marshlands now are a valuable agricultural area. Of course, maintenance is needed to keep the water where it belongs and at the same time making it work. This video explains the 'how' of it by the Water Management Alliance, showing pumps, dedicated machines and ways of working with water.
