New project of the INOWAS group on smart MAR monitoring and modelling just started

We are very glad to announce that a new project coordinated by our INOWAS research group just started today! The project is entitled “Smart framework for real-time monitoring and control of subsurface processes in managed aquifer recharge (MAR) applications (SMART-Control)” and was funded within the programme Joint Programming Initiative "Water challenges for a changing world" (WaterJPI). The main objective of the project is to reduce the risks associated with the application of MAR by developing an innovative web-based real-time monitoring and control system (RMCS) in combination with risk assessment and management tools. The system will consist of an in-situ real-time monitoring system and a web-based platform for control, modeling and forecasting. For this, the existing INOWAS platform (www.inowas.com) will be enhanced with new features and capabilities.

The research partners in the SMART-Control project are: Berlin Centre of Competence for Water (KWB), Germany; Umwelt- und Ingenieurtechnik GmbH Dresden (UIT), Germany; Adelphi research gGmbH, Germany; French Geological Survey (BRGM), France; Lyonnaise des Eaux/Suez, France; Universidade Federal de Paraíba (UFPE), Brazil; Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPB), Brazil; University of Cyprus (UCY), Cyprus.
