Upcoming Events

New Orleans Groundwater Workshop

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

During this final workshop, Deltares will expand on the workshop from last October and provide a summary of the entire work that has been put into the groundwater monitoring network, including the results of 10 months of groundwater monitoring. Some of the topics include the model setup, results, and showcasing the database for use in urban planning and infrastructure management. A new report will be presented on the knowledge gaps analysis including proposals for future research. Additional information and reports about the project can be found on the public wiki page - https://publicwiki.deltares.nl/display/WMNO

This workshop is designed for anyone who is interested in New Orleans' groundwater and wants to learn more about the groundwater monitoring network that now exists. Together, we also hope to discuss the possible uses of this network to improve urban water management, urban planning, infrastructure protection and subsidence mitigation.  The presentations will be understandable for non-experts. As such, we welcome the participation of all public organizations, NGOs, consultants, and other interested parties.
