1 Open source policy and tools a platform for cooperation Innovation Week Istanbul 2014 Mohamed Yossef December 4, 2014

2 Contents Why open software, open source? Software and Tools Delft3D, SOBEK, Delft-FEWS, DAM, Serious gaming Next Generation Hydro Software Delft Software Days 2014 (DSD-INT 2014) 140 countries Facts and figures joined open source community joined Delft3D LinkedIn group Delft3D publications

3 Deltares Deltares is an independent institute for applied research in the field of water, subsurface and infrastructure. not-for-profit organisation à foundation 840 staff (20% PhD 20%, 40% MSc) Government partner & advisor Contribution to icon projects Operate in societal themes 4 december 2014

4 Open source: why (1)? Environment: Several open source communities with interesting developments Open source requirement in many research programs Transparency Pros: Positioning profile raising: Dare to share: to strengthen our international position as a independent research institute through collaboration Easier to collaborate with universities and research institutes worldwide Access to research funds with the requirement of open source Open source will lead to more use of the software, which leads to more specialist advice and request for developments Efficiency: Faster joint development (time-to-market) with integration of unique expertise of third parties Faster mutual development of our knowledge base Faster response & bug fixing within the community Larger pool of users and developers for validation of the software

5 Open source: why (2)? It allows researchers and code developers: to use state of the art open source products for further product developments, to integrate with own advancements, to collaborate easily with fellow researchers. It enables modelers: to use the software with no limitation on the number of user licenses, to run any number of simulations. Chris Sherwood (USGS) in VIEWS 5: Going open source is not just a good business idea, but also a tremendous benefit to scientists.. I think Delft3D combines cutting-edge science with robustness and usability. I regard Delft3D as one of the best packages in its field.

6 Open source website ( Facts and figures 140 countries joined open source community joined Delft3D LinkedIn group Delft3D publications It s our invitation to all leading experts to collaborate in development and research

7 Software and tools Open Source Components as Building Blocks for Integrated Hydrological Models 4 december 2014

8 Facts and figures, since 1 January 2011 (1) Delft3D FLOW + MOR + WAVE in open source since 1 January 2011 Launch Delft3D open source community website on 21 April 2011 Delft3D: model of the month on CSDMS(USA) on 28 April 2011 Hundred thousand of pageviews unique visitors registrations and in the Delft3D LinkedIn group Delft3D publications

9 Facts and figures, since 1 January 2011 (2) Delft3D developers meeting in Miami, USA, on 5 May 2011, well attended Source code commits by: NIWA: gravel sediment transport formula IWEP SB RAS: ice and density formula Delft Software Days : Delft3D Users Meetings Delft3D Basic and Advanced Courses Delft3D open source workshops Open Source Pre- and Postprocessing Workshop OpenDA Basic Course XBeach Basic / Advanced Course Delft3D/SOBEK open source developments: DELWAQ in open source, as per March 8, 2013 RGFGRID, in 2015 Delft3D Flexible Mesh, in 2015

10 Building a collaborative community... Joint research & development: research programs software development projects

11 ... on topics of common interest IWRM Flood Risk planning and management Water Quality and ecology Ground water management Drought Management Reservoir management Hdrodynamics Delft3D Flexible Mesh, which includes the new D-Flow Flexible Mesh engine flow - vegetation interaction water quality modeling surf zone processes wave modeling (detailed) near field modeling numerical performance 3D visualization model data import export tools data assimilation tools (calibration, ) model coupling
