Invitation
On behalf of the International Working Group on Data and Models of the IWA and IAHR Joint Committee
on Urban Drainage, it is a great privilege to host the 11th International Conference on Urban Drainage
Modelling (UDM) in Palermo next September 2018. The UDM Conference deals with the main and
advanced topics related to modelling the urban drainage system (e.g., water quality and quantity, urban
flooding and modelling, urban flood forecasting and risk analysis, socio-economic interactions and
modelling tools, etc… ).
The conference has been running since 1986 and in 2018 will be held the 11th edition, a monumental
achievement of the urban drainage community. The UDM conference series started back in 1986 in
Dubrovnik, former Yugoslavia. The second edition of UDM was organized in 1991 also in Dubrovnik. After
the first two editions in Dubrovnik, the conference has travelled across the globe to the River Volga (1994),
London (1998), Orlando (2001), Dresden (2004), Melbourne (2006), Tokyo (2009), Belgrade (2012) and
Québec (2015). In 2018 we will be meeting in Europe once again.
The UDM seeks to create a forum for promoting the discussion amongst scientists,
professionals and academia on urban drainage thus providing to women and men of
this field decisive ideas. We also hope that your participation to the Conference in
Palermo will provide you the opportunity to explore the rest of Italy, to savor its
diverse and rich mixture of ethnic traditions, culture, cuisine and religious sites. We
look forward to welcoming you to the colorful and vibrant city of Palermo and see
you in 2018.
                                                                                  On behalf of the Organizers
