OpenMI Life

Duration: January 2006–December 2010

The project's rationale lies in the Water Framework Directive,which demands an integrated approach to water management. This requires an ability to predict how catchment processes will interact. In most contexts, it is not feasible to build a single predictive model that adequately represents all the processes; therefore, a means of linking models of individual processes is required.The FP5 HarmonIT project's innovative and acclaimed solution, the Open Modelling Interface and Environment (OpenMI) met this need by simplifying the linking of hydrology related models.Its establishment will support and assist the strategic planning and integrated catchment management.
