DynaVIBe, Dynamic Virtual Infrastructure Benchmarking

Dynamic Virtual Infrastructure Benchmarking (DynaVIBe) is an approach for the algorithmic generation of virtual case studies of the entire urban water infrastructure (e. g. water supply, drainage and sewer systems) to investigate its behaviour and impact on the urban environment and socio-economy over time (mid- and long-term perspective in the context of e. g. urban development and climate change). Furthermore scientific propositions in this context are therefore case study unspecific. Identifying and analysing processes of the urban water cycle can be done with the help of real world case studies. However, data observation and preparation for such studies is a time consuming task and therefore the number of free available case studies for research is limited. The approach of DynaVIBe closes this gap.
