  3. Why a new modelling system? • Current models struggling to handle 21C complexity • Policy • Operations • Climate • Nationally consistent capability, integrating: • Cities, irrigation, hydroelectricity & environment • Conjunctive surface-water & ground-water use • Sub-catchment to Basin scales • Data rich and data poor settings • Planning and operational requirements

  4. Integrated modelling system (IMS) for rural and urban water management LAND USE CLIMATE ECOLOGICAL ASSETS .IMS IRRIGATION DAMS & WEIRS CITIES

  5. Customisable for different rural and urban water management applications Catchment & Rivers Urban Irrigation Ecology
