Dr John Duncan from The University of Western Australia and Dr Daniel Kidd from the Grower Group Alliance discuss the recently released Water Evaluation Platform (WEP), which was created as part of the WaterSmart Dams project. WEP is a web application that allows you to simulate the performance of a dam and its catchment allowing the landholder to understand and analyse the different options available. The WEP was designed with industry experts and growers to support individual farms, private contractors, water planners, and local communities to make drought-resilient investment decisions.This episode highlights the different types of analysis possible through WEP, as well as the data required, and the process taken to get here. This episode is brought to you by the South-West WA Drought Resilience Adoption and Innovation Hub and is hosted by Shannon Beattie.WaterSmart Dams: capturing and keeping water in dams - Dry Season Resources PodcastCentre for Water and Spatial Science | UWAThe Ripple EffectWaterSmart Farms – water security and resilience in a drying climate. | Department of Primary Industries and Regional DevelopmentWaterSmart Dams Introducing the Water Evaluation Platform (short video)Water Evaluation PlatformHub news - Drought Hub
