HYDROVLAB – Virtual Hydrology Laboratory

General Objective: Develop a virtual web training system, through user access to three-dimensional models of the human body housed in a cluster, the interaction between the operator and the system will be carried out through virtual navigation tools (helmet and glove) Implement the Virtual Hydrology Laboratory (HydroVLab) as a didactic tool for undergraduate and postgraduate training.

Specific objectives:

  • Install, configure and manage the HydroVLab Web portal on a dedicated server, which allows improving the performance and response times of the implemented tools.
  • Develop data analysis tools.
  • Develop simulation tools for hydrological processes.
  • Develop design tools applicable to the fields of hydraulics and fluvial engineering.
  • Train the project stakeholders in the simulation philosophy and in the use of the HydroVLab.
  • Carry out the respective tests of each tool created to ensure correct operation and certify its use.
  • Validate the HydroVLab and its tools: both from the methodological point of view, as well as its computational performance under different degrees of demand.
  • Disseminate the existence of the first Spanish-speaking hydrology virtual laboratory, through participation in congresses and scientific articles, so that it is a tool for common use by the scientific and academic community
