Impact/Purpose:
The Water Network Tool for Resilience (WNTR) is a new software tool designed to help water utilities measure and improve the resilience of their drinking water systems to disasters.
Description:
The Water Network Tool for Resilience (WNTR) is a new Python package designed to simulate and analyze resilience of water distribution networks to a variety of disaster scenarios. WNTR can help water utilities to explore the capacity of their systems to handle disasters and guide the planning necessary to make systems more resilient over time. WNTR has an application programming interface (API) that is flexible and allows for changes to the network structure and operations, along with simulation of disruptive incidents and recovery actions. WNTR can be installed through the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) GitHub organization at https://github.com/USEPA/WNTR.
