Webinar: Digital technology helping utilities build greater community resilience against water challenges
October 27, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Thursday 27 October 2022
11am AEST
Increased rainfall caused by climate change is having a damaging impact on water utilities and the communities they serve, as flood waters can overwhelm networks, carry pollutants and damage water assets.
These challenges, combined with rapid population growth, are putting enormous pressure on water systems to meet service demand while managing flood and spill risk. Utilities also need to plan for capacity improvements to prepare for future emergency disaster scenarios.
Advances in technology are helping water professionals mitigate the risks extreme weather can have on the community and environment. Specifically, there are new digital technologies that allow stormwater and wastewater engineers, planners, project managers and consultants to build accurate models so they can understand how a system will respond to disaster events before they happen.
Join Innovyze, Autodesk company and Utility Magazine on 27 October for a free webinar that will explore how water utilities can better prepare and respond to disaster events. Delegates will learn about:
- Flood and spill risk management
- Building resilient water systems across clean water, stormwater and wastewater
- Creating accurate and holistic models of your systems
- Reducing the impact of pollution and asset failures
- Planning for capacity improvements and system expansions
- Implementation of accurate and reliable data
- Australian and UK case studies
