Hear from Bill Syme, Software Business Lead @TUFLOW discuss the numerous factors that influence hydraulic modelling result accuracy, including: - Input data quality - Parameter values (e.g. Manning’s n) - Model schematisation - Representation of structures - Suitability of the computational solver Consideration of the each of these factors is essential to building a
