SURFACE AND GROUNDWATER
The ACADEMY by DHI provides training courses in topics
related to surface water and groundwater management
such as integrated catchment management, integrated
water resources management and water resources analysis
and decision making. We also provide training in using our
software tools for water resources to improve the
environment.
Solving water and environmental problems requires the
integration of various aspects such as groundwater and
surface water, water quantity and quality, environmental and
socioeconomic aspects.
Growing populations may cause water quality to deteriorate.
As such, the problems and challenges related to the
sustainable use of water resources are likely to increase
manifold, as the demand for good quality water for people,
agriculture and industry can be an environmental threat.

In this this one-day, thematic course we aim to provide you with an overview of integrated solutions available to allow you to address disaster risk management with respect to floods. How can you make a difference in preparing and subsequently manage floods.
Disasters are of concern for almost all countries and are growing in terms of people affected and economic losses. A majority of all disasters today are related to hydro-meteorological factors, with floods (inland and coastal) as the main factor causing disasters. A changing climate will increase the risks for many regions.
In recent years several floods have resulted in severe damage and health problems due to lack of timely and coordinated communication and lack of preparedness of local government and support services. The missing integration of knowledge and dissemination of information causes greater damage and hence costs.
COURSE TOPICS
What is disaster risk management
Prevention and mitigation of floods
Improving preparedness
Prediction and warning,
Response in form of flood maps and dissemination of information to the public
Presentation of integrated solutions for flood risk management
Examples of local/regional/international cases

This one-day course gives you an introduction to flood forecasting focusing on how they are built and used by managers and operators during emergency situations.
This course will give you a broad understanding of the state-of-the-art real-time flood forecasting and early warning systems and how they help authorities disseminate timely and reliable warnings to the public. You will learn about our successful approach for creating powerful forecasting and early warning systems and how a system can be configured to meet your specific needs.
You will understand the key steps involved in building and implementing flood forecasting systems by flood management authorities and discuss real world examples of how to run the systems during emergency situations.
The course will give you ample opportunity to share experiences and discuss relate course topics related to your own needs.
When reliable flood information can be developed quickly and safely into early warning and response actions, the benefits of forecasts and warnings increase significantly. This helps mitigate human suffering as well as reduces significantly infrastructure damages and loss of productivity.
