Situation todayAims for this decadeFuture changes Environmental, Economic, Social Needs
n A data-driven simulation model of a synthetic population
n To experiment with different scenarios by generating demand profiles, and to find supply from a description of technologies and networks using optimisation with key performance metrics
n A fully open-source approach at ‘laptop’ scale
The approach: Resilience.IO Model

n Explore per district water and wastewater relatedoutcomes for the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area:
n Socio-economic scenariosn Source water treatmentn Potable water distributionn Water demands and usagen Toilet usen Waste water collectionn Waste water treatment
Data-driven Synthetic populationn A population “in the computer” is generated based on
real data collected for GAMA, leading to a representative synthetic population (~0.1% of real population)
n Socio-economic data inputs¨ Gender (male or female)¨ Age (0-14 years or 15+)¨ Work force status (Employed / Not active or unemployed)¨ Income status (Low income / Medium income / High income)
n Spatial data inputs¨ Home location (point in district)¨ Work location, based on distance from home
12
Calculation method (simplified)
13
n The population characteristics sets the water demands for each individual (e.g. lower income à lower water demands)
n The water use is evaluated for every 5 minutes based on a time dependent mathematical function.
n Multiply output to aggregate total water demands of the whole population
Demonstration
15
1. Creation of Synthetic Population Change
2. Simulate demands
3. Examine what infrastructure can best
supply demands
What happens? Calculation (simplified)
Various settings:
n Initialize model with demands (set by user or from simulation)
n Set initial infrastructure (facilities, pipes, their technology, capacity),and capital and operational cost values.
n Set desired objectives for calculation: a) to meet % demands forpotable water and b) to achieve % wastewater treatment,
Model calculates how to meet these targets by optimisation, set in oursimulation to find the lowest cost and GHG emissions, taking intoaccount all the additional settings.

Use Cases to demonstrate the Model
21
n Three use cases were selected by the GAMA TechnicalGroup in Accra, and developed to demonstrate thefunctionality of the model from a user perspective:
¨ Use Case 1 – Assess outcomes of ongoing WASH projects andgaps towards meeting macro-level targets for planning
¨ Use Case 2 – Examine possibilities and costs to increasehousehold access to improved potable water sources
¨ Use Case 3 – Analyse the availability of clean, accessible andaffordable toilet infrastructure
Which use case / scenarios to dive into?
