Optimizing short-term water demand forecasting: a comparative approach within t...

The current paper presents a forecasting methodology for short-term water demand forecasting in the context of the Battle of Water Demand Forecasting. The methodology considers five distinct forecasting techniques, which are compared in terms of their forecasting ability for a preceding period, typically spanning a day or a week. The best-performing model is identified through error assessment between model pre...

This paper describes a new information system developed as part of the Portuguese R&D project DECIdE. The project aimed at the development of a platform for infrastructure asset management tailored to Portuguese water utilities. The platform allows the integration of different data from several information systems of the water utilities and includes several tools for the performance assessment of the water supp...

Processamento de dados de temperatura do solo para simulações computacionais de...

Os serviços de ecossistema, como a limitação natural de pragas, incluem-se nas estratégias de gestão de agro-ecossistemas e o seu uso pode ser otimizado com base no conhecimento provindo da modelação computacional das pragas, dos seus predadores, e da paisagem. Neste artigo focamo-nos no processamento de dados de temperatura do solo, necessários para o funcionamento dos modelos de praga-predador Bactrocera olea...

Construção de um sistema de modelos para simulação computacional da limitação n...

A limitação natural de pragas é um serviço de ecossistema que deve ser promovido nos sistemas agrícolas, já que pode ser usada como alternativa, ou complementarmente, à aplicação de pesticidas. Consiste no consumo das pragas pelos seus inimigos naturais e pode ser promovida através do estabelecimento de componentes paisagísticas que forneçam, a estes inimigos das pragas, alimento alternativo e refúgio, para alé...

Repositório de ferramentas para a gestão de sistemas de distribuição de água

No presente artigo apresenta-se um conjunto de ferramentas, disponíveis em código aberto, para a gestão de sistemas de distribuição de água, desenvolvidas no âmbito dois projetos de investigação, financiados pela Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), o projeto DECIdE (https://decide.ips.pt/) e o projeto WISDom (https://wisdom.ips.pt/). No âmbito do projeto DECIdE, foram desenvolvidas ferramentas que permi...

An information systems for infrastructure asset management tailored to portugue...

This paper presents a new information technology platform specially tailored for infrastructure asset management of urban water systems operated by water utilities of lower digital maturity level, developed in the scope of DECIdE research project. This platform aims at the integration of different data from the water utilities with several information systems and the assessment of the system performance, in ter...

Flowrate time series processing in engineering tools for water distribution net...

The current paper presents a comprehensive methodology for processing unevenly (and evenly) spaced flowrate time series for subsequent use in engineering tools, such as the calibration of hydraulic models or the detection and location of leaks and bursts. The methodology is a four-step procedure: (a) anomaly identification and removal, (b) short-duration gap reconstruction, (c) time step normalization, and (d) ...
