Modelling water availability and water allocation strategies in the Scheldt basin. Sub report 2. Development of a methodology for updating the water demand of the water allocation model

To be able to perform up to date simulations with the water allocation model of the Flemish navigable waterways, it is necessary to update its input regularly. Besides updating the network and possible new structures like new canal reaches, new locks, new pumping regimes, … also the water demand of the different water users should be updated. In contrary to the update of the network – which needs to be done manually – the update of the water demand can be done automatically by means of a new developed tool. This sub report describes the development of this tool.
