Goal and impact
Understand the current water level in the canal. When the level is (too) high, (risk of) high/flooding occurs
Considerations
Being able to continuously monitor is important to monitor safety is important to monitor safety is important to monitor safety.
Human intervention
Humans interpret the data and decide accordingly.

- What happens when there is too much or too little precipitation? What is the quality of my ditch? How much water flows through the sewer? Water calculations answer such questions. An algorithm determines how water moves. The results help make choices for designing and managing outdoor space.Last change on 28th of May 2025, at 7:53 (CET) | Publication Standard 1.0

- What happens when there is too much precipitation? What if there is too little? What is the quality of my ditch? How much water flows through the sewer system? These types of questions can all be answered by making water calculations. Within such a calculation, the algrotime determines how the water moves. Results are used to make the right choices when designing and managing outdoor space.Last change on 4th of June 2025, at 12:08 (CET) | Publication Standard 1.0
