2D Hydraulic Modeling Review Training

    Training Objectives

    1. Identify key aspects of a 2D hydraulic model review
    2. Request the relevant information required for conducting a thorough and accurate review of hydraulic models
    3. Conduct preliminary reviews of hydraulic models and understand when a more in-depth review may be necessary
    4. Recognize acceptable or reasonable ranges for the key components of a 2D model
    5. Spot common modeling errors and other issues that warrant further investigation
