Antoine Labrosse, CEO
At DHI, our customers are at the centre of our business, philosophy and ideas. Nothing matters more to us than providing a great experience, at every stage of the customer journey.
That is why in 2018, we have built a complete design team dedicated to the design thinking approach, involving our customers and placing them first – starting from the very initial product development stage.
“The era of Digitalisation is opening a whole new range of opportunities for the Water Industry. To ensure that our products best fit our customers’ needs, we are increasingly entering into a co-creation process, leveraging on design thinking and agile methodologies.”
HydroMaster is a Cloud solution that allows users to view, analyse and archive historical as well as upcoming precipitation events. The Flash Flood Index forecasts flash flood threats accurately and translates extreme weather data into actionable information on the ground.
GlobalSea Oil Spill is the online operational application to forecast the movement and transformation of accidental oil spills at sea – anytime and anywhere in the world.
Offshore wind plays a key role in the Dutch route to achieving international climate goals. To provide offshore wind farm developers with high quality and certified metocean data, we delivered the world’s first certified web-based metocean database – the DHI MetOcean Portal – encompassing 40 years of metocean data.
The combination of well-validated models and state-of-the-art statistical tools resulted in more accurate extreme values and defined a new design basis for the Dutch North Sea. This will help our client save costs, reduce uncertainties and continue the future development for offshore wind farms in the Netherlands.
After a heavy rain, a combined storm and waste water network can result in sewage overflowing into Auckland’s streams and harbours.
As part of the award-winning Safeswim – a website by the Auckland Council that warns people about water quality – we provided forecasts and up-to-date beach conditions of various locations around central Auckland. This was made possible by combining real-time wastewater and stormwater network data with predictive models. Information provided by Safeswim is helping the public plan ahead for a better beach experience.
