Flood Modeller 2026 Conference
30th September - 1st October 2026
Aston University, Birmingham, UK
Centred on Application, Innovation and Opportunity, this is the must‑attend event for anyone serious about flood risk modelling. Building on the outstanding success of last year, the 2026 Conference promises to be bigger and better than ever before.
Taking place at Aston University in the heart of Birmingham, the event will once again bring together professionals from across the sector for two days of insight, learning, and collaboration.
Last year’s event featured 38 exceptional speakers representing government, consultancy, academia and beyond. The 2026 programme will continue that momentum, showcasing fresh perspectives and standout contributions from across the sector.
Discover a range of ticket options designed to suit everyone, including dedicated rates for public sector and academic attendees.
What to expect
Attendees will once again have access to a varied programme including:
-
Real‑world user case studies.
-
Interactive workshops and hands‑on training.
-
The latest regulatory and policy updates.
-
Practical examples showcasing how organisations are applying tools, data, and best practice to solve real problems.
-
Sessions focused on current and emerging regulatory requirements, helping delegates stay informed and prepared.
-
Opportunities to deepen knowledge, develop skills, and engage directly with experts in an interactive setting.
The 2026 conference will provide valuable opportunities for networking, knowledge‑sharing, and collaboration, bringing together peers from across the UK and beyond in an open and supportive environment.
Further details on speakers, sessions, and programme highlights will be shared in due course. For now, we invite you to save the date and look forward to another high‑quality, content‑rich event in Birmingham in September 2026.

Call for abstracts
We are excited to invite abstracts for the 2026 event, offering two types of presentation opportunities: Full Presentations and Poster Presentations.
Full Presentations
Full Presentations will be 20 minutes, followed by a 10‑minute Q&A session. This format is ideal for sharing in‑depth project work, innovative methodologies, advanced modelling techniques, and real‑world applications.
Poster Presentations
Poster Presentations will consist of a 5‑minute presentation delivered using a single slide, followed by informal Q&A. This accessible format is perfect for those who are newer to presenting or looking to build confidence in a supportive and relaxed environment.
To Help Guide Your Submission
We invite abstracts from practitioners, researchers, and organisations working with Flood Modeller, Flood Platform, or tools and datasets that integrate with or support these products. Submissions should focus on real-world use, workflows, innovations, or insights that advance modelling practice across the Flood Modeller and Flood Platform ecosystem.
We particularly welcome contributions on:
-
Case studies using Flood Modeller or Flood Platform
Real‑world applications, project delivery, decision support, operational forecasting, or integrated workflows. -
Lessons learned
Insights from technical challenges, model build processes, calibration and validation, post processing, deployment into operational systems, or platform-based delivery. -
Innovative approaches within the Flood Modeller / Flood Platform environment
Novel methods that improve hydrodynamic, water quality or sediment modelling, real-time forecasting, catchment-scale analysis, scenario testing, or cross‑tool integration. -
Technology and tools that connect with Flood Modeller or Flood Platform
Including cloud workflows, APIs, real-time systems, GIS platforms, third‑party modelling software, automation frameworks, and digital twin applications. -
Data processing and data management workflows
Efficient model build processes, data pipelines, version control, collaborative working, or reproducibility across Flood Modeller and Flood Platform. -
Data collection relevant to modellers
Field surveys, LiDAR, remote sensing, telemetry, IoT sensors, monitoring networks, or datasets used to inform, calibrate, or validate models. -
AI, machine learning, and automation
Applications that accelerate model build, enhance forecasting skill, support QA/QC, enable automated workflows, or enrich the Flood Modeller or Flood Platform ecosystem. -
Data science and analytical techniques
Approaches that extract insights from model outputs, support uncertainty or sensitivity analysis, enable optimisation, or improve platform‑driven decision support.
If your presentation is accepted, you will be eligible to register as a speaker and receive a 50% discount on your conference ticket.
Whether you’re showcasing cutting‑edge research, demonstrating practical project outcomes, or exploring new ways to apply Flood Modeller, we encourage you to submit an abstract and contribute to shaping this year’s programme.
