Integrated Hydrologic Modelling using HydroGeoSphere
We’re excited to see you at 76th annual CWRA National Conference in Halifax, Nova Scotia! We’ll be delivering a 1-day intensive training course for conference attendees who are interested in leveraging the world’s most powerful integrated hydrologic modelling platform for their research programs.
Note: registration for this event is handled by CWRA. Registration is expected to open in April, monitor our social media for notifications!

Course description:
Join the Aquanty team for a 1-day intensive course which explores the complete integrated hydrologic modeling process using HydroGeoSphere (HGS). This course includes a short session to explore the capabilities of HGS and the governing equations which power this integrated modelling platform, but the focus of the course is primarily on the practical aspects of using HGS. Attendees will explore the entire HGS modelling workflow, from model mesh generation using AlgoMesh to results visualization using ParaView. Significant time will be dedicated to exploring the command-based language used to construct HGS model input files, and the data requirements for constructing integrated groundwater-surface water models. You will also benefit from an overview of numerical solution techniques/best practices, model convergence troubleshooting, how to implement particle tracing, and the basics of introducing 1D & 2D hydraulic features to HydroGeoSphere models (e.g. channels, tile drains, fractures, etc.).
Attendees of this course will receive a temporary license of HydroGeoSphere (30-day), a temporary license of AlgoMesh (2-week), a copy of all course content including lectures (PDF) and exercises, and the opportunity to network with other HydroGeoSphere users and the software development team.
Date: Sunday, June 18, 2022 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM
Prerequisites: There are no firm prerequisites for this course, but as HydroGeoSphere is a fully integrated (groundwater & surface water) simulation platform attendees will benefit from basic knowledge of principles and best practices of hydrologic modelling (e.g. development of conceptual model, use of boundary conditions, numerical solution methods, etc.).
Fees: $200 professionals; $50 students
