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
