Our areas of expertise
Our expertise spans all water environments – from rivers and reservoirs, to oceans and coastlines, to cities and factories.
We have a 50-year track record in developing and implementing solutions that meet real-life challenges in water environments worldwide. So whether you need to save water, share it fairly, improve its quality, quantify its impact or manage its flow, we can help.
All our areas of expertise
Effective coastal flooding resilience planning and operational decision making is dependent on quality data to make informed decisions. As a complement to our modelling software is the technology required for building real-time flood forecasting, warning and operational control systems.
MIKE OPERATIONS is the premier tool for the collection and processing of real-time data to build flood forecasting and warning systems used to alert a community of impending flooding or to generate real-time flood inundation maps to help expedite disaster response. These systems are designed to account for all important forcings such as tides, storm surge, wind and waves.
Easy access to updated flooding information is critically important to coastal communities. DHI can help design user interfaces for readily available mobile access to this information View forecasts and receive alerts and notifications from mobile devices with MIKE OPERATIONS WEB Receive notifications and alerts through email and SMS when a user-defined event is triggered or if the latest forecast values require response
Example of a flood alert tool created for the City of Miami Beach, FL USA through an initiative to explore new solutions to better protect their community and its citizens.
Get your flood forecasting & warning system up and running faster when a standardarised software product is combined with a flexible and open software framework Enhance the configuration as needs evolve Seamlessly convert your off-line model into an online model
Automate data preparation, data quality control, model execution, results visualisation, reporting and notification Build and schedule automated jobs and workflows including forecast bulletin reports
MIKE OPERATIONS also enables the creation of real-time operational control systems that connect to the internet-of-things to control pumps, weirs, gates and dams in the physical system for powerful, on-demand flood protection.
Communicate directly with your hardware PLCs Allows for online control of regulating infrastructure elements such as pumps in water distribution or drainage systems with the ‘SCADAConnect’ module
Optimise dam releases to meet downstream water demands, mitigate flooding and control pumps or gates in water collection systems Minimise combined sewer overflows work with simulation-based optimisation algorithms in real-time
Connect directly to SCADA via Open Platform Communications (OPC), previously termed Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control (OLE for Process Control) with the ‘SCADAConnect’ module
Your real-time data may be processed and quality assured in automated workflows, and made available as validated data or data reports through MIKE OPERATIONS Desktop and MIKE OPERATIONS WEB.
Test different reservoir releases or water diversion options in a flooding event to help mitigate flood damage
