Aims

Developing a methodology for modelling in water management according to WFD by developing:1. Knowledge Base (KB): guidance on how to model for water

management2. Modelling Support Tool (MoST)

Knowledge Base Includes knowledge on

Modelling and how to do it Modelling in teams Multidisciplinary (i.e. domains) projects Water management

Guidelines dedicated to: User types (water manager, modeller, auditor, stakeholder, public) Domains (groundwater, precipitation-runoff, hydrodynamics, flood forecasting,

surface water quality, biota and socio-economics); Job complexity (basic, intermediate, comprehensive)

Implemented in an ontology (e.g. smart database) Provided to users by MoST

City, year presenter - workshop / course - HarmoniQuA intro 7

HarmoniQuA Modelling Support Tool (MoST)

Provides guidance from the KB to users Can set-up and organise multidisciplinary modelling projects Monitors the work of all persons involved in a modelling project Reports to specific audiences Provides advice based on experience from previous projects
