Digital expertise for sustainable water management

WPS has developed a high-performance digital platform for the Federal Institute of Hydrology (BfG) that presents complex hydrological data in an accessible way and makes it available nationwide. From the technical design and software development right through to intuitive user guidance, the result is a solution that combines modern technologies with the requirements of a highly available specialist application.

• Design and development of the web platform: implementation of a modern, high-performance application for the nationwide provision and analysis of low-water information.
• User-centred UX/UI design: Development of an intuitive and accessible user interface that provides both specialist users and interested members of the public with easy access to complex hydrological data.
• Integration and processing of diverse data sources: Consolidation and visualisation of measurement data on water levels, discharge rates, groundwater levels, spring discharge and precipitation patterns within a unified information system.
• Interactive maps and intelligent data visualisation: Development of powerful mapping, analysis and comparison functions that clearly illustrate current low-water situations and make historical trends comprehensible.
• Scalable software architecture and high-performance data processing: Implementation of a future-proof technical platform for processing large volumes of data and ensuring the reliable operation of a nationwide specialist application.
• Digitalisation for climate adaptation and preparedness: Development of a solution that supports public authorities, local authorities and the business sector in making informed decisions and developing effective strategies for dealing with increasing low-water events.
