Python Tools for Water Simulations at TUFLOW

Join Pyowa on Tuesday, December 9th from 5:30 to 7 pm at Source Allies or online for a hands-on look at how python plays a central role in preparing, running, and analyzing modern water simulation workflows. In this talk, Rusty Jones, TUFLOW Technical Lead, will share how Python tools support 1D, 2D, and 3D water simulations for flooding, water quality, and sediment transport. Rusty will walk through the Python driven processes used to gather and generate input data, manage simulations, and post process results. He will also highlight the key geospatial libraries and supporting tools that enable efficient modeling.

Speaker Bio: Rusty Jones is the Technical Lead at TUFLOW and has spent his career at the intersection of programming and water simulation. He began coding early, studied C++ at BYU while building interfaces for water models, and later taught himself Python during his engineering work at HDR. Today he works across FORTRAN, C++, and Python to support advanced water modeling workflows.

After this session, Pyowa We will then be on "Holiday Hiatus" until our January Meetup, scheduled for Tuesday, January 27th!

RSVP only if attending in-person.
