What if a single Flood Modeller simulation could test 44 target outflow scenarios and help identify the most effective response?


Join this webinar to discover how Ben Gibson, Technical Director at JBA Consulting, used Flood Modeller to develop an innovative forecasting model for the Leigh Flood Storage Area. By combining 44 target outflow scenarios within a single simulation, the project delivered a more efficient way to assess operational responses and support decision-making during flood events.


Faced with a complex forecasting challenge, the team pushed beyond conventional modeling approaches, using a combination of sub-models, logical rules, and radial gate units to automate scenario testing and compare outcomes. The project also integrated 3D modeling techniques to better understand gate behaviour and identify opportunities to refine the underlying 1D model.


In this session, you'll discover how innovative modeling techniques can unlock greater efficiency, improve operational insight, and help tackle complex forecasting challenges with confidence.


What you'll learn:

  • How 44 operational scenarios were brought together within one Flood Modeller simulation

  • How existing functionality was adapted to meet the needs of the project

  • How the model was configured to compare potential operational responses

  • How insights from 3D analysis supported refinements to the 1D model

  • What the project revealed about approaching complex forecasting challenges in new ways


Register now to see how creative modeling techniques can help you solve complex forecasting challenges and support faster, more informed operational decisions.
