Innovation Calls, Camps and Workshops
Each year, WMO HydroHub launches an Innovation Call inviting individuals and businesses to submit new sustainable solutions that can be up-scaled around the world. We will support you to operationalise your solution and give your approach visibility in the WMO community and partners network.
Opening Workshop on Water Quality Monitoring
29, 30 & 31 March 2022, Online
The Opening Workshop was the first of a series of workshops on Water Quality Monitoring taking place during 2022-2023.
WMO-OGC Workshop "GroundWaterML2 standard"
10 March 2022, 12:00 – 16:00 (UTC), Online
The workshop introduced the GroundWaterML2 standard (GWML2) and demonstrated its recent implementations.
Innovation Workshop "WMO HydroHub Phase II Innovation Roadmap"
2 & 4 February 2022, 13:00 - 16:00 (CET), Online
This Innovation Workshop focused on identifying areas of innovation that the WMO HydroHub could support during its Phase II to ensure its activities help build sustainable capability within NMHSs. The event explored recent advances in hydrometric monitoring approaches and technologies and the current needs of operational monitoring agencies around the world.
New Case Studies on innovation activities
- Development of a rainfall and stream water level quality control subsystem for Belize CDMS
- Lidar-based non-contact hydrometry for Mountainous Terrain
- Open source non-contact river flow observations with cameras for Africa
- Inexpensive open source data loggers and sensors for water levels and hydrologic measurements in least developed countries
International Surface Velocimetry Workshop
4-6 May 2021, The University of Hull (UK)
The three-day theoretical and technical workshop will address non-contact surface velocity methods for determination of river and floodplain flows.
Workshop on "Innovations in Non-contact Hydrometry"
23 April 2021, 14:00 - 16:30, Online
The objectives of the workshop are to introduce the science behind recent advances in non-contact water level measurement and help the practitioners to make a knowledgeable choice between non-contact technologies for hydrometry.
