Introduction to 1D urban modelling
Learning objectives
By the end of this course, you will understand the 1D urban modelling capabilities of Flood Modeller and when to apply the software to different types of application.
On completion, you will be able to build, run and review your own urban drainage model, consisting of manholes and pipes. You will also learn how to generate data in multiple formats.
You will also understand how to integrate the 1D urban solver with Flood Modeller’s 1D river solver to model channels, or its 2D solver to model surface water flow.

Additional information
The in-person version of this course is delivered in one day. The course starts at 09:30 and finishes at 17:00.
The online version of this course is delivered across two-days. It consists of four sessions, with each session being delivered across a two-hour period. Two sessions are delivered each day with the first session in the morning followed by a second session in the afternoon.
Prior to the training, you will receive a detailed document which provides all the information you need to undertake the course, including the agenda, links to the various resources, and details on how to access Flood Modeller.
Each attendee must provide their own laptop to undertake the training. However, a one-month Flood Modeller Standard edition training licence (worth £600) is provided to each attendee.
