Model Manager
Protecting your communities against flooding with better planning
The increasing prevalence of severe weather events makes flood resilience and mitigation efforts essential to a community’s economic and social well-being. Advanced analytics and data collection can help government organizations plan for and protect their communities against flooding.
Watershed datasets and flood modeling are major tools in the flood resilience toolbox, but they require significant storage and can be challenging to organize and share.
Model Manager is a digital solution designed to make the lives of those in the flood modeling community easier. The application provides users access to a centralized cloud storage platform that allows the effortless organizing, storing, and retrieval of watershed models.
It also offers a public application programming interface (API), which enables external websites to interact with Model Manager and retrieve and download available files. The API helps to get data to the people who need it most.
That data can then be integrated and disseminated to the general public and within the flood modeling community. This leads to better preparation for future flood resilience.
