Rana Hydrodynamics Basic Training
To help you become proficient with Rana Hydrodynamics we offer an in-house training program. This training program is relevant for decision-makers as well as experts working in the fields of hydrology, calamity management, engineering, agriculture, remote sensing, spatial planning and risk analysis.
The training program is tailored to cover all the basic modeling concepts using a combination of lectures and hands-on exercises. Basic prior knowledge on hydrology, modelling and GIS experience is recommended. Upon completion of the program, you will receive the 3Di certificate. The program is offered in both English and Dutch, depending on the participants.
Unlock Automation using the API
Learn how to use the Rana API, unlocking the full potential of Rana accessible via scripting.
Rana Hydrodynamics is built completely API based. This means that if you can use it in one of our interfaces you can script it. In this training you’ll learn how to use the API, write basic scripts to start simulations, follow them, download results and analyse them. All fully automated.
Using Rana Hydrodynamics in sloping areas
Learn how to use Rana in sloping areas. The subgrid methodology that Rana uses has the underlying assumption that water levels are gradual. This works well for relatively flat areas, rivers and estuaria. But for hilly areas the assumption changes, the assumption there is roughly that the water level is parallel to the slope approach.
In this training you’ll learn to understand this underlying principle, rules of thumb to use in hilly areas and what to do to ensure a smooth and fast computation of water flows.
Groundwater in Rana Hydrodynamics
Learn how to use the ground water module in Rana. With the ground water module in Rana it is possible to compute groundwater flooding as a result of heavy rainfall events. It connects to the 2D, but it is also possible to connect 1D and 2D making it possible to enhance sewerage models with groundwater interactions.
In this training you’ll learn the theoretical background of ground water in Rana, rules of thumb, expand an existing Rana model with a ground water component. It is possible to bring your own model to the course. If you don’t have local data available we’ll be using a course example.
