Background

This workshop will explore the latest technologies in model-partner software. It will also explore the modelling mindset – and will discuss how proper model design can have a profound effect on modelling success. Decision-support isn’t automatic just because someone builds a model. It must be built into the modelling workflow from the ground up.

​

The morning session will discuss theory and methodologies. The afternoon session will address practice. Common groundwater management problems will be presented for a group discussion on how these problems can be decomposed into components that support information harvesting on the one hand, and risk assessment on the other.

​

The workshop is almost free.  The price covers full-day catering,  we’ll provide the rest!
