Intelligent system to support the efficient use of resources and the management of flood and bathing pollution emergencies in coastal cities

The R&D SINERGEA Project targets an intelligent platform for decision support of the integrated and optimized management of energy, bathing water quality and inundation in coastal cities. Framed in a smart city view, this platform will simultaneously allow to: 1) contribute to city energy efficiency through minimization of drainage infrastructures energy consumption; 2) protect urban beaches by preventing bathing waters contamination by urban discharges; 3) contribute to urban flood events risk management. Based on innovative ICT methods, the system will provide real-time proposal of optimized infrastructure operation measures, merging real-time forecast and monitoring of the full water cycle (atmosphere, catchment, urban and coastal areas) and energy, pre-defined environmental scenarios and operational alternatives. This generic tool, XHQ SINERGEA, customizable to the challenges of different end-users and interconnected water bodies, will be demonstrated in the city of Albufeira (Portugal) and its nearby coastal area.

Project Main Goals:

Create an innovative platform to support integrated management of energy, bathing water quality and flooding in coastal cities, demonstrated in Albufeira. The platform will propose optimized management actions through forecasting and monitoring systems of present and future scenarios.
