Welcome to Tools menu!

In this section of Watersketch Toolbox you can find some tools applicable in several tasks in river basin planning and management. The tools available here have been used and tested in several case studies in different countries in the Baltic Sea Region within the Watersketch project. The tools presented may have originally been developed in some earlier projects, but they all have been further developed and finally made available through the Watersketch project and this toolbox. You can find here descriptions, user instructions and  examples of practical applications of every tool available.

Tools in the Watersketch Toolbox

  • RiverLifeGIS - a software for hydrological and water quality computations on river catchments using geographical information (GI) and monitored water quality data
  • Web-HIPRE - a tool for multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) using value-tree structure
  • Public Hearing Database - a tool for managing contributions from the public in any kind of spatial planning processes, also in river basin planning
  • Priority Game Generator - a tool for generating priority games, which offer citizens the possibility to attempt for themselves the often difficult act of balancing various interests against each other via the internet
  • REGCEL - tool for assessment of the ecological impacts of changes in water level fluctuation in lakes
  • DHRAM - tool for assessment of the harmful impacts of flow changes in rivers
