Het watersysteem is prima beheerd, maar staat
onder druk door:
– Vaker extreem weer (veel regen in korte tijd, storm
en langere droogte periodes in de zomer)
– Andere maatschappelijke functies leggen beslag op
watersysteem (industrie, transport, natuur en
verstedelijking)
Het watersysteem is complex en sterk verweven
met andere maatschappelijke functies, hoogwater
en droogte hebben impact op:
• Scheepvaart transport
• Zoutindringing en grondwater.
• Koelwater energiecentrales
• Water productie voor industrie, landbouw en
drinkwater.
• Verkeer en vervoer
• Gebouwen en stabiliteit (grond)waterstanden
Huidige kosten 7 miljard/jaar, in 2020 8-9 miljard/jaar

Use case 1
Instrumentation for water level regulated systems (IWP-2)
Involved organizations
Rijkswaterstaat (owner)
Local water authorities Waternet, Hollands Noorderkwartier, Stichtse Rijnlanden, Rijnland
Description
Rijkswaterstaat and the 25 local water authorities are amongst others responsible for managing the
water levels. The instrumentation for managing local and national water levels will be modernized
coming years.
Current Situation
The water balance is currently optimized within the districts of the local water authorities and more
or less independent on a national level by Rijkswaterstaat. Relevant information is being shared by
often by phone or email. Intervention by any stakeholder impacts the operations of the others who
respond reactively.
Goal
Rijkswaterstaat and participating local water authorities will start sharing relevant information
centrally via the Digital Delta infrastructure and make this real-time available to others.
Contribution to Digital
Delta objectives
•
•
•
•
Improve cross district optimization of managing the water balance (optimize the discharge of too
much water but also improve the containment of water during anticipated dry periods and
prevent damage to agriculture due to salt intrusion from sea)
Share data and facilitating new science and development of new solutions
Standardization of integration of data sources so follow-on data sets can be easily connected
Facilitates additional use cases like Discharge Advice Sluices Ijmuiden, Open Data Open Polder,
Drainage Advice for preventing Salt Intrusion

Use case 2
Innovation Playground
Involved organizations
Local Water Authority Delfland (owner)
Various SMBs
Description
In the Innovation Playground the local Water Authority Delfland (district of the cities of Delft, the
Hague and partly Rotterdam) will provide its challenges and make its (operational) data available
for scientists and SMBs to develop multiple use cases
Current Situation
Vendors and scientists do not have easy access to data from the water authority, access is on a
project basis and collection and integration often done in a non repeatable vendor independent
way. Delfland would like to benefit from new solutions and approaches to become an early adopter
but after they are proven in an operational environment.
Goal
Provide access to (operational) data through Digital Delta infrastructure and become the test site
for innovative water solutions.
Contribution to Digital
Delta objectives
•

Use case 3
Plug & Play Sensors
Involved organizations
University of Delft (owner) & students
Description
The University of Delft developed rain sensors based on sound analytics: the acoustic disdrometer.
These are low in price and can be deployed in large quantities. Other university teams focus on
other sensor types like temperature, wind, radiation and humidity.
Current Situation
Deployment and setup of sensors and connections requires technical IT skills and availability of
hardware (PC or edge servers) and can easily take months and a substantial portion of the
available budgets before teams can focus on the science.
Other science departments would like to reuse the available data
Goal
Development of a generic mechanism to connect disdrometers and other sensor types based on
technology like motes and the Rijkswaterstaat Smart Sensor Kit
Contribution to Digital
Delta objectives
•
•
•
would drastically reduce cost and development time for new science projects requiring sensor
data
Sensor data becomes broadly available for improving models and decision making
Provides the basis for status based maintenance use cases like drainage of tunnels and roads
and the city water system. For these type of use cases sensor data needs to be integrated with
weather forecasts, maintenance data and topography. These higher level use cases have the
potential to drastically improve aspects of the water system.

Use case 4
Next Generation Hydrosoftware (NGHS)
Involved organizations
Deltares (owner)
Description
NGHS facilitates the numerical modeling of rivers, seas and deltas at arbitrary locations on earth. A
numerical model needs to be fed with input (bathymetry, rainfall runoff, water levels) that is
derived from data sets like elevation, land use maps, meteo, water level and discharge data).
Current Situation
NGHS supports preparing model input from raw data, but not the complex task of searching,
finding and using relevant data. This complexity arises from the huge amount of available data, the
variety in storage formats, and the some times limited accessibility.
Goal
The Digital Delta will solve this problem by realizing and maintaining a catalogue for frequently
used data, converting data formats to a standardized form if necessary, and providing en public
and/or authorized data access.
The modeler therefore can create a model more efficient, and can add it relative simple to an
operational environment (e.g. a FEWS-based forecasting system) because the data needed for the
predictions will be available in a standardized way.
Contribution to Digital
Delta objectives
•
•
Would reduce cost and development time for local (and international) model development
Enable monitoring of the complete information supply chain improving the quality of information
for operational systems and the decision making based on those systems
“relevant input and output(model) data can be
found, used and value added by everyone”

Twitter, Youtube, Flickr & Facebook massively
– Unvalidated observations of crimes, accidents
and disasters are often posted on the web within
minutes after they occured
– Ministry of Infrastructure is responsible for
supplying validated information to crisis response
services and citizens
•
Project focus:
– Citizen as participating stakeholder and ‘sensor’
– Automatic datamining of social media streams
for type of crisis and location
– After validation by Ministry information supplied
back to citizens and crisis response teams
From hours to minutes of validated information provisioning

23 use cases proposed by companies and researchers
We believe we can predict when
tunnels will flood and improve the
maintenance schedule
Sewers have enough capacity if we
can predict where blockages will
occur postponing complete overhaul
We can save 700k on the annual
energy bill of 1 installation by
discharging water at sea at the
right moment
Underground storage basins
are often placed in the wrong
location, data analysis can
tell where they should be
We can analyse which ground
bodies like levees or buildings
are subsiding using satellite data
Leveraging cross regional
data can greatly improve the
water forecasting and control
Airborne geophysics can provide
the data for sustainable ground
water management in coastal
zones much faster
We can monitor the depths of rivers
continuously using commercial
shipping data saving costs

What’s keeping them ?
1. Too much time lost on non-core activities
– 30 - 60% time or resources lost on
searching, collecting, getting access
to, validating data
– Setup and maintenance of the IT
environment
– Long time to market
2. Unaware of existing tools & solutions
– Broad duplication of data, tool development
3. Unable to compare data
– Lack of standards
4. Large number of research and business
development opportunities
– If the barriers and costs to engage would
be lower
Inefficient and expensive
