New publication: CARE-S: Computer Aided Rehabilitation for Sewer and Storm Water Networks
CARE-S is a 3-year research project funded by the European Commission
under the Fifth Framework Programme aiming to develop an integrated and
robust decision support system for sewage network management. The
advanced rehabilitation planning system is based on a comprehensive and
integrated suite of software tools including enough flexibility for
adaptation to a variety of situations, users needs and skills.
The product is in its final stage of development and adaptation. End-users
involved in the project are implementing the tool for daily operational
management in areas of Spain and Portugal. Other European cities and water
managers are attracted by the CARE-S system. Contracts have been signed by
Reggio Emilia - Italy and in Stockholm establishing a formal introduction of
the system for sewer management purposes. The cities of Prague and Cracow
are firmly interested and concrete projects for demonstration and training
programmes are well progressing.
The new generation management system of sewer and storm water assets, methodology and software is presented in a recently published book: "CARE-S: Computer Aided Rehabilitation for Sewer and Storm Water Networks", edited by Sveinung Saegrov. The publication is available from IWA Publishing: www.iwapublishing.com (ISBN: 1843391155; August 2006).
