Supporting decision-making and adaptation policies to address water scarcity and water stress
MARCLAIMED is an EU-funded project aimed at integrating the solutions Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) with Alternative Water Resources (AWR) to mitigate water stress and proactively manage droughts. This integration is essential for the sustainable use of both surface and groundwater resources.

How digital twins are being used in MARCLAIMED to monitor and optimise water management strategies
The MARCLAIMED project creates an integrated decision‑support environment built around a high‑fidelity digital twin of river‑basin and aquifer systems. Real‑time sensor feeds, including hydrological, meteorological, water‑quality and infrastructure data, are exchanged using the NGSI‑LD standard and are coupled with physics‑based hydraulic models, producing a continuously updated virtual replica of the water network across the three demonstration sites in Portugal, Spain [...]
MARVIS: Nitrates Virtual Sensing for Safer Aquifer Recharge
Nitrate control is central to water safety, whether for general water supply systems or for managed aquifer recharge with alternative sources. While traditional laboratory testing provides reliable reference values, sampling and analysis often occur at fixed intervals, precluding continuous monitoring of conditions and associated risks. MARVIS is a digital tool that addresses this gap with an affordable and efficient approach [...]
How MARCLAIMED’s Integrated Decision Support Tool (IDST) empowers water regulators, utilities and industry through data driven decision making
The Integrated Decision‑Support Tool (IDST) sits at the core of the MARCLAIMED project, translating streams of heterogeneous water‑related data, exchanged through the NGSI‑LD standard, into actionable insights for every stakeholder in the water‑value chain. For water regulators, the IDST aggregates real‑time telemetry from river gauges, groundwater wells, weather stations and remote‑sensing platforms into a single, standards‑compliant database. Advanced analytics then [...]
