Hydr’Avatar will develop an innovative digital twin platform for hydrology at a continental and regional/basin scale.
The project will use a wide range of diverse and heterogeneous EO data and hydrologic/hydraulic models to represent basin-scale land surface processes and vertical water and energy balance, river network scale flood propagation, and complex 2D physics.
This DTC will help improving hydrological prediction and foster a broaden use of EO datasets in a flood and extreme events context, and will provide end-users and stakeholders (hydrologists and water resource managers, scientific community, government and regional agencies, local communities, and private users) with advanced tools for decision making in a changing climate.
