In recent years, based on the Chinese government’s requirement to promote the modernization of water conservancy through informatization, the water authority in charge of the Haihe River Basin, Haihe River Water Conservancy Commission (www.hwcc.gov.cn) has built a basic integrated water information system consisting of an infrastructure, an application system and a support environment. The system has provided significant technical support for flood and drought control management and water resources management in the Haihe River Basin.
For the next step, HWCC plans to introduce a new informatization concept and technology to integrate information resources, improve networks, build a data centre and unify its portal. It will attempt to build an HWCC integrated water conservancy management platform with “one network, one map, one centre and one portal”.
