Water Flow Measurement Course
This course equips you with essential skills for measuring water flow in practical engineering settings. You will learn to use ADCPs and current meters, perform data quality checks, calculate discharges, and design effective harbour and channel surveys. These abilities support key decisions in dredging, navigation safety, and infrastructure planning across various water environments.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills to plan and carry out precise water flow surveys in harbours and channels. Master hydrodynamic principles, choose and set up ADCPs and current meters, plan survey lines, and handle safe operations. Process data, compute discharge rates, assess uncertainties, and deliver clear reports for navigation, dredging, and tidal analysis.
