Water Resources

Water Resources Overview page

Whether you work with flooding problems, reservoir operation, groundwater development, or water allocation, DHI Software should be your obvious choice.

Our tools bring you the expertise to analyze and solve a range of complex water resources and environmental problems from hilltop to ocean (H2O) in an integrated fashion.

Below you are introduced to our suite of water resources software packages for inland applications. The products offer solutions to different types of problems, sometimes to similar problems, but with different focus. Choosing the right software and modelling approach gives you a competitive advantage and makes you able to provide exactly the type of results that are required. With the built-in flexibility in all the packages you can develop complex or simple models according to your needs and data availability. Simplicity is an art, but you have the most advanced methodologies at your disposal to make things simple and working for you. Furthermore, many of the packages can seamlessly be expanded or combined and make the solutions unique. Contact us if you are in doubt, and we can help you to make your modelling project a success

Software products in the MIKE WATER RESOURCES family include:

MIKE 11 river and channel hydraulics

MIKE 11 is the most popular river modelling system among professionals dealing with surface water problems in the world. It includes more than 20 years of built-in experience and continuous development. It is a versatile one-dimensional hydrodynamic software package including a full solution of the St. Venant equations, plus many process modules for advection-dispersion, water quality and ecology, sediment transport, rainfall-runoff, flood forecasting, real-time operations, and dam break modelling.

MIKE FLOOD - river and floodplain hydraulics

MIKE FLOOD is an integrated tool for detailed floodplain studies. It combines the two numerical hydrodynamic models MIKE 11 (1-D) and MIKE 21 (2-D) with a unified user interface and gives you the best of both worlds: Detailed spatial modelling where needed, plus the speed of 1-D calculations where appropriate. MIKE FLOOD is ideal for many types of analyses such as flooding, storm surge, dam break, embankment failure, and more.

MIKE FLOOD WATCH - real-time flow forecasting

MIKE FLOOD WATCH is a decision support system for real-time forecasting, fully integrated into ArcGIS. This product is applied operationally at Flood Forecasting Centres World-Wide. It integrates data management, forecast models and dissemination methodologies in a single system within an ArcGIS platform. MIKE FLOOD WATCH offers real-time applications for monitoring systems, weather models, modelling with DHI Software tools as well as third party codes, and can also be used in other types of application, where there is a need for real-time data management and modelling predictions.

MIKE 21C - river hydraulics and morphology

MIKE 21C is an integrated river morphology modelling tool based on a curvilinear version of the water model MIKE 21 and adjusted to river applications. The model can be used to simulate changes in the river bed and planform, including bank erosion, scouring, shoaling associated with for instance construction works and changes in the hydraulic regime. The model system simulates transport of all sediment sizes from fine cohesive material to gravel using a multi-fraction approach and a number of transport formulae. Today, MIKE21C represents state-of-the-art model technology for sediment transport and morphological studies of rivers. MIKE21C has been applied for morphological studies in small and large scale rivers, meandering as well as braided, from steep mountain rivers to estuarine environments as well as for reservoir sedimentation, simulating time scales from just a few hours to several decades.

MIKE BASIN - ArcGIS empowered water resources modelling

MIKE BASIN is a versatile GIS-based water resource and environmental modelling package. It provides a simple, yet powerful framework for managers and stakeholders to address multi-sectoral allocation and discharge issues in a river basin. MIKE BASIN represents all elements of water resource modelling: users, reservoirs, hydropower, surface water, groundwater, rainfall-runoff, and water quality. Its object-oriented and open-ended code allows users to write their own Visual Basic rules, and make their own decision support interfaces in e.g. Microsoft Excel. MIKE BASIN uses the full strength of GIS and database integration and is ideal for communicating with non-technical audiences.

MIKE SHE - numerical integrated hydrology modelling

MIKE SHE is an integrated hydrological modelling system which covers the entire land phase of the hydrological cycle. Thus MIKE SHE is not just a three-dimensional, numerical groundwater model, but also includes numerical models for overland flow, unsaturated flow, solute transport, agricultural practice, evapotranspiration, etc. MIKE SHE is by default coupled to MIKE 11 and can also be coupled to MOUSE for urban applications. MIKE SHE offers numerous process descriptions that can be used in various combinations depending of the scope, and is ideal for distributed rainfall-runoff modelling.

MIKE GeoModel - geological modelling and interpretation

MIKE GeoModel is an ArcGIS™ extension for interpretation, visualisation and presentation of borehole geology and geophysical databases. Now you can easily and quickly create, interpret and manage geological models for your area of interest using thousands of borehole data points and hundreds of cross-sections.

Temporal Analyst - Time Series Data Management and Analysis

Temporal Analyst is an ArcGIS powered tool that brings time series data management directly into GIS. It is a unique and powerful ArcGIS™ extension for efficient and versatile storage, management, processing, plotting and analysis of virtually any time-related data inside your ArcGIS™ application. The Temporal Analyst effectively removes the barrier between GIS and fully dynamic data handling, modelling and monitoring.
