The document summarizes an event introducing the Next Generation Hydro Software (NGHS), which integrates existing hydrological software tools into a new computational core and user interface. Over 600 participants from 50 countries attended the two-week event, which included courses, workshops, and symposia on water, subsoil, and infrastructure software and knowledge. The NGHS allows for surface water simulation from source to sea using an integral 1D-2D-3D model, and has involved over 40 scientists and engineers over several years with 10 million Euro in funding.
