At DSI, we leverage our deep expertise in environmental modeling and site remediation to address environmental challenges comprehensively. Utilizing our advanced EFDC+ Explorer Modeling System (EEMS), our specialists uniquely combine cutting-edge software capabilities with decades of practical consulting experience. This synergy enables us to accurately predict toxic sediment transport and effectively plan cleanup strategies tailored specifically to our clients’ sites and operational contexts.
When selecting modeling tools for hydrodynamic and water quality assessments, it's crucial to align software choices with project objectives, budget constraints, scheduling needs, and available resources. At DSI, we go beyond generic modeling solutions by guiding our clients through a tailored selection process that ensures the chosen software aligns precisely with their project's unique requirements.
Our approach considers the ultimate end-user, ensuring models are accessible and usable by all intended stakeholders. We employ advanced user interfaces, like those provided by EFDC+ Explorer, enabling efficient updates to model inputs and seamless analysis of results, significantly reducing the effort needed for model maintenance.
Recognizing the importance of project schedules, we leverage GUI-driven tools and parallel processing capabilities, utilizing technologies such as OpenMP and MPI, to expedite model calibration and reduce run times substantially. This approach enables our clients to achieve quicker, more accurate results, even in complex and large-scale modeling scenarios.
We also specialize in addressing challenging environmental scenarios, such as density stratification in water bodies, hydraulic structure interactions, and detailed tracking of particle movements and oil spill dynamics. Our EFDC+ platform offers advanced features like Sigma-Zed gridding to reduce errors in stratified environments, comprehensive hydraulic structure modeling, and robust Lagrangian particle tracking capabilities.
Moreover, we understand the complexities of eutrophication modeling and ecosystem dynamics, offering customizable modules for simulating multiple algae and zooplankton species. Additionally, our expertise extends to cold region environments, integrating robust ice modeling capabilities directly into our assessments.
What sets DSI apart is our dedication to continuous support and model enhancement. We actively engage with the EFDC modeling community, providing ongoing support, code development, and tailored consulting solutions to ensure the long-term success of our clients' projects.
