Research & innovation

Innovation is at the heart of all we do. We invest strongly in research and development, responding to the needs of clients to provide bespoke innovative solutions and incorporating the latest technical knowledge through collaboration with industry, academia and government

Water

Our work involves water; how it rains, where it flows, how it is used and managed, and how it will change in the future. Our team works on projects managing the risk associated with water resources, use, flooding and drainage. This work includes understanding upstream catchments, rainfall and climate changes, hydrology, flood and drainage studies, dam assessments, reservoir operations, drought and water security investigations, and yield assessment.

This is supported by our Global Watershed Mapping, flow estimation and Flood Maps – now available for all countries
