Immerse yourself in industry-leading tools like WaterGEMS, which is cutting-edge hydraulic modeling and simulation software. You can integrate Geographic Information System (GIS) data with Quantum GIS (QGIS) or ArcGIS for comprehensive spatial analysis, adding a powerful layer to your water network design capabilities. This training offers a unique opportunity for hands-on, practical learning enabled
by participation in exercises, practical scenarios, and a real-world project to ensure that you not only understand theoretical concepts but also develop the practical skills required to excel at water network design. Our experienced professionals in water engineering, GIS integration, and hydraulic modeling will take you through the tools and methodologies, providing valuable insights and real-world examples. The curriculum is carefully designed to cover a wide range of topics required for water distribution network design. You will learn everything you need to know about comprehensive water network planning, including data collection, GIS-based spatial analysis, pipe sizing, pump selection, water pressure management, and system optimization. Master the integration of QGIS with WaterGEMS in depth,
learning about its role in water distribution network design and the practical use of GIS data for enhanced spatial analysis. Learn about water quality analysis, and scenario management to ensure that network designs are robust, efficient, and sustainable.
