Our main role is to support the implementation and use of Source as the new national hydrological modelling platform in Australia. To that end, our government owners contract eWater to provide these 'adoption' services in support of the Australian Council of Australian Government's (COAG) National Hydrological Modelling Strategy. This includes provision of long term maintenance and improvements to Source. We also collaborate with members of the Source Modelling Community to develop Source and share knowledge and resources for innovation and best practice in water management. Also important to our role in water management capacity building is our Toolkit suite of water and environmental management tools and resources. The most widely used tool is our stormwater modelling product, music, which continues to lead the way in decision support for stormwater quality management and water sensitive urban design.
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
