Basin-wide integrated modelling via OpenMI considering multiple urban catchments

Water Sci Technol. 2009;60(5):1241-8. doi: 10.2166/wst.2009.471.

Abstract

Integrated modelling is currently receiving a lot of attention in the field of urban hydrology. This paper describes a method for carrying out integrated modelling of sewer systems and rivers, where the constituent models are linked to each other using the European OpenMI interface. This has the advantage that, once the necessary software extensions have been carried out, the data sets describing the subsystems can be used as they are without any need for adaptation.
