Giswater Association
About
The goals of Giswater Association are to meet the challenges of the Giswater project, and we work to achieve the following objectives:
- To disseminate values of open source software, particularly applied to engineering and water management.
- To develop, promote and universalize the whole use of the 'Giswater software'.
- To contribute to the research, development and dissemination of knowledge in the areas of water management, hydraulics engineering and flood risk management.
- To establish itself as a global benchmark in the field of open knowledge in areas described before, generating any project or application based on this described knowledge areas.
- To participate and collaborate in projects, alliances, meetings, workshops, conferences or any initiative or event that deals with the topics descrided before.
Our mission is to move from acquired knowledge to shared knowledge in the areas of water management, as supply, sewerage, urban drainage or flood risk assessment, and our vision is to develop Giswater, a open software project with the goal to communicate any water simulation software through any Spatial database with any Geographic Information System (GIS) in order to give everybody a real way of open water solutions.
Giswater connects water simulation programs to a powerful GIS interface, and lays the foundation for full management of water supply systems, sewerage systems, drainage networks and rivers using Web Map Services (WMS), System Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) or Customer Relationship Management Systems (CRMS).
