Short Course Hydroinformatics Systems

IAHR-EGW Short Course Hydroinformatics Systems

Berlin, Germany
Berlin 20-24 September 2004

The short course offers an overview of recent and newly developed methods and techniques in hydroinformatics which are required to efficiently solve research and practical problems in hydroengineering and environmental engineering. It offers theoretical knowledge and practical application for flexible development and adaptable use of modern software and net components. Main focus will be the actual evolution in information and communication technology and the corresponding reflection in hydroinformatics systems as well as in the working process in hydroengineering and hydroscience projects.

The course is structured in five days, each with a specific topic: hydroinformatics systems in general, numerical modeling, information modeling, GIS-based modeling and Web-based systems. Besides an overview and the theoretical background, all five topics will provide demonstrations on suitable application in research projects and for PhD and MSc theses. The short course can be used for personal consultation with the course lecturers as well as for open discussions among the course participants.

The course is directed to researchers, MSc and PhD students as well as practical engineers from industry and administration who want to broaden their knowledge in modern hydroinformatics systems to use newly developed methods in combination with modern information and communication technologies for a better solution of their research or practical work.

Participants should have basic knowledge of modern computer systems in hydroengineering. The short course gives a generalized overview in modern Hydroinformatics Systems.

All course participants will receive a participation certificate with the description of the course contents. Academic recognition will be offered by a voluntary examination at the end of the course or by an online examination after the course. A successful examination is the prerequisite for a special certificate indicating 3 ECTS.
