What is real-time modeling good for? We will highlight several useful applications, e.g., tracking water age in real-time, energy use, unaccounted for water, more accurate event detection, identification of contaminant sources and the ability to respond to contamination events in real-time, and improved operator training. |
|
This online event will last for 60 minutes, with a substantial amount of time dedicated to a "live" question and answer session for attendees. The price to attend starts at $100. Please reserve your spot today as there is limited seating available. |
Join us for this webcast to learn:

|
What are the barriers to real-time modeling and their potential solutions? |
| |
|
|
 |
|
What is the future of real-time modeling in terms of integrating SCADA data with a hydraulic/water quality model? |
| |
|
|
| |
|
What is EPA's EPANET-RTX, and how do we think it will help motivate the application and advancement of real-time modeling? |
|
Who Should Attend?
This webcast should be attended by engineers, managers, and operators that are interested in using SCADA data with their hydraulic model. This webcast will present a number of powerful applications of real-time modeling, potential barriers to real-time modeling, and solutions to remove these barriers. |

About the Presenters |
 |
Robert Janke
Research Scientist
US EPA |
Mr. Robert has been with U.S. EPA, National Homeland Security Research Center, Office of Research and Development in Cincinnati, Ohio since 2003. As a founding member of the EPA's Threat Ensemble Vulnerability Assessment (TEVA) Research Team, Rob's research has focused on distribution system modeling to better understand the vulnerabilities of water distribution systems to contaminant attacks and intrusions using the information to design tools and methodologies to improve the security of water systems.
Prior to joining EPA, Rob spent 12 years with the Department of Energy largely devoted to the design, construction, and deployment of real-time radiological detection instrumentation. Rob has Master of Science degree in Health Physics and Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from the University of Cincinnati.

Jim Uber, Ph.D.
Professor Civil Environmental Engineering
University of Cincinnati |
|
Dr. Jim earned his PhD in Environmental Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and has taught and conducted research on water infrastructure systems at the University of Cincinnati since 1990. In 2009 he started CitiLogics, LLC as a vehicle to bring advanced methodologies for water distribution systems modeling and analysis to engineering practice -- including new developments in real-time network modeling. Jim's extensive background in systems analysis techniques has allowed him to be an industry leader in promoting the development of software tools to help water utilities better manage their assets — most recently as a co-developer of the TEVA-SPOT water security software, and the EPANET-MSX multi-species water quality simulation package. |

Sam Hatchett
Engineer
CitiLogics |
|
Mr. Sam received a Mechanical Engineering degree from Texas Tech, and is completing his PhD research at the University of Cincinnati while working full time as an Engineer at CitiLogics. Sam designs custom software solutions for designing, operating, and managing water infrastructure systems, and is the technical lead for CitiLogics software development projects marketed to the broader water industry. Sam's current focus is leading the technical development team that is continuing to develop and extend the USEPA open-source software for real-time network modeling — EPANET-RTX. |
