- 2. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA Motivation Amount and types of data available at local and global scale at increasingly higher temporal and spatial resolution Accessing and integrating these data for modeling and decision making purposes can be challenging and highly time consuming Enable collection and sharing of data coming from complex water resources domains and managed by multiple institutions Platform for comparatively analyzing alternative water management strategies

- 4. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA Complex water resources contexts The participation and interaction of all the stakeholders affected by the system management (e.g., water managers, hydropower companies, farmers) through the use the web geo-server has indeed the potential for enhancing the efficiency of water management practices
- 5. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA Objectives The case study focuses on the analysis of the main components of the Lake Como system and the different water-related interests involved. In other words, understanding of the reciprocal feedbacks between the decisions made in the system, such as modifications of the upstream reservoirs or Lake Como operations, or changes in the crops type cultivated in the downstream agricultural districts
- 6. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA How to access and exploit all this information?
- 7. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA A web geo-service can allow the exploration of the potential benefits achievable by adopting coordination strategies between the actors involved. Significant advantages can be obtained through a coordinated management of Lake Como and the upstream reservoirs, as well as by tuning the lake releases to match the actual water demand of the crops cultivated in the irrigation districts downstream.

- 9. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA Why ? Previous experience Most popular, well documented, large community CMS between joomla and wordpress More advanced geospatial funzionalities (Geoserver and OpenLayers modules) Why a CMS ? Administration: user account, permissions and roles Extendibility : modules or plugins Data and content management: organize, structure, find and re- use content Accessibility on multiple devices

- 25. 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics HIC 2014, New York City, USA Final remarks The use of the CMS is crucial for collection, storage, sharing and visualization of geodata in complex water resources management contexts, especially for its user permission and content management functionality. The proposed architecture combines different software that answers the need of an easy, self-explainable access interface for a multiple variety of users demands In the future, the web geo-service architecture can be enriched with the use of Web Processing Service (WPS). This could allow the users to run the model through the web, changing some predefined model parameters.
