Urban Hydroinformatics: Data, Models and Decision Support for
Integrated Urban Water Management is an introduction to
hydroinformatics applied to urban water management. It shows how to
make the best use of information and communication technologies for
manipulating information to manage water in the urban environment.
The book covers the acquisition and analysis of data from urban
water systems to instantiate mathematical models or calculations,
which describe identified physical processes. The models are
operated within prescribed management procedures to inform decision
makers, who are responsible to recognized stakeholders. The
application is to the major components of the urban water
environment, namely water supply, treatment and distribution,
wastewater and storm water collection, treatment and impact on
receiving waters and groundwater, and urban flooding. Urban
Hydroinformatics pays particular attention to modeling, decision
support through procedures, economics and management, and
implementation in developing countries. The book is written with
Post-graduate students, researchers and practicing engineers in all
aspects of urban water management in mind. Visit the IWA WaterWiki

Hydroinformatics systems are systems that combine computational
hydraulic modelling with information systems (including
knowledge-based systems). They are gaining rapid acceptance in the
areas of environmental planning, design and management. The present
book focuses exclusively on sewage systems, starting with their
planning and then going on to discuss their design, operation and
rehabilitation. The very experienced authors discuss business and
information needs in the management of urban drainage, tools for
collecting and archiving such data, and their use in modelling
catchment hydrology, sewer systems hydraulics, wastewater quality,
wastewater treatment plant operation, and receiving waters. The
control and operation of sewer systems in real time is described,
followed by a discussion of their maintenance and rehabilitation.
Intelligent decision support systems for managing the urban
drainage business process are presented. Audience: Researchers into
sewer design, municipal engineers, planners and managers interested
in an innovative approach to all aspects of the planning, design
and operation of sewer systems.
