Water is the most fundamental and critical element for the efficient, sustainable and safe development of urban, land, infrastructural, industrial project and for the economic development in general.
Water, valuable resource and threat at the same time, is always a challenging parameter for engineering projects requiring specialized and multidisciplinary expertise.
The IDRAN team represent an optimal support for the engineering analysis and design for any activity and intervention for the efficient management and use of water resources, for the realization of fluvial, coastal, maritime works, for hydraulic and urban drainage systems and for water and wastewater treatment and reuse facilities.
Hydraulic, hydrogeologic, geomorphologic risk (e.g. floods, debris flow, mud flows, landslide and slope failures in general) from one side, the environmental risk evaluation for the complex human and climatic conditions (e.g. draughts, climate change, pollution, terrorism) from another side, characterize the peculiar skills, services, know-how and products of the IDRAN team that operates through well known experts, advanced in-house ICT tools and with the strategic and integrated support of an extended international network of business and academic partners.

Water represent an essential resource for the development and for that reason must be preserved due to quantitative and qualitative aspects and also due to it availability.
IDRAN’s multidisciplinary team can provide specialized support for studies related to:
- Sustainable use of water resources
- Equilibrium of basins water balance
- Reduction of water contamination
The effect of water and its interaction with structures and infrastructures can determine some hydrogeological risk situations.
Hydrogeological risk events can be multiple: landslides, flooding, coastal erosion, subsidence and avalanches, IDRAN, thanks to it multidisciplinary team offers specialized consulting for an optimize assessment and development of countermeasures for territory preservation. The client is supported in all the phases of the intervention for the mitigation of hydrogeological risk, from the feasibility analysis to the executive phase, and also in the direction of the works.
The Hydrogeological Asset Plans are territorial planning tools aimed at managing and reducing the risk of floods and landslides.
The Hydrogeological Asset Plans perimeter and identify qualitatively and quantitatively the elements and areas at risk in order to sustainably manage socio-economic and industrial development activities.
The preparation of The Hydrogeological Asset Plans is based essentially on the geometric characterization of the elements of the territory (Topography), on definition and numerical verification of river basin response to heavy rainfall (Hydrology) and on the evalutation of the effects induced by such hydrological forces in the valley areas of the water courses (Hydraulic/flood) and in the slopes (geomorphology/landslides and debris castings).
IDRAN uses tools and data for topography (e.g. DTM and DSM LIDAR, VAV and Laser Scanner) to hydrological/hydraulic modeling (e.g. commercial and experimental calculation codes for inflow/outflow simulation, 1D and 2D hydrodynamic propagation algorithms) and for GIS mapping of hydraulic and geomorphological risk areas.
Hydrological, hydrogeological and hydraulic studies play a key role in the engineering design of structural and non-structural interventions for the management of water resources and hydrogeological risk with particular regard to aqueducts, sewers, agricultural, forestry, river and marine water works.
IDRAN supports public and private clients in the different phase of realization, from feasibility to execution and construction management, with particular specialisation of mitigation interventions of the hydrogeological risk.
