HazelDRY: Water Security Decision Support
Ideal Sites for Infiltration
Dry cities on every continent face periodic water shortages. Groundwater supplies can be recharged through strategic capture of (infrequent but intensive) rain. HazelDRY [above right], a sister software to HazelFLOOD, identifies where it is cheapest and safest to infiltrate stormwater and build clean reliable groundwater supplies in water-stressed cities.
