List of hackathons organized by northumbrian water in 2018

Flooding from the sewer network is a terrible experience for our customers, and one we are committed to eliminating. Our Flooding Data Hackathon will bring together a range of innovative thinkers including Data Scientists and wastewater networks specialists to tackle this challenge. Using a variety of infrastructure, environmental and open-source data sets, we aim to gain a greater insight into the causes of flooding allowing us to predict escapes and reduce the impact on our customers.

Northumbrian Water are hosting a Innovation Festival and leakage Hackathon, where we will tackle the industry's big questions and invite data scientists and researchers from around the world to find innovative ways of finding and reducing leakage from the water network. The event promises to challenge your creativity and analytical skills,with prizes for the best ideas and the possibility of further opportunity to turn your ideas into a commercial reality.10th-12th of July @Newcastle Racecourse
