The role and concept of a distributed hydro information system supporting integrated water management in the Drina river basin

Abstract

The significant hydro potential of the Drina River is not utilized to its full extent. A very important step towards integrated water management in the Drina River basin is the establishment of a distributed system to aid management as an information, technical and expert decision-making support tool. The paper presents the concept of a modern and complex distributed hydro information system, which includes data acquisition, processing and archiving, as well as software for the integration of system components. The central software component is a mathematical model of the system and the process, aimed at providing the user with relevant information for expert decision-making on the further development and improvement of the system or adequate management in real time.

Značajan vodni potencijal sliva reke Drine nije u dovoljnoj meri iskorišćen Veoma važan korak u integralnom upravljanju vodama na slivu reke Drine jeste uvođenje distribuiranog sistema za podršku upravljanju, kao informatičke tehničke i ekspertske podrške odlučivanju. U radu je prikazana koncepcija savremenog i složenog distributivnog hidroinformacionog sistema, koji obuhvata akviziciju, obradu i arhiviranju podataka, kao i softver koja objedinjuje sve delove sistema. Centralni deo softvera je matematički model sistema i procesa, sa ciljem da korisniku pruži relevantne informacije koje su potrebne za donošenje ekspertske odluke o daljem razvoju i unapređenju sistema ili adekvatnom upravljanju u realnom vremenu.
