IWA (International Water Assocation) Task Group on Good Modelling Practice. The genesis of the Task Group lies in a workshop held at the 4th IWA World Water Congress in Marrakech, Morocco where members of 4 research groups - Hochschulgruppe, STOWA, BIOMATH and WERF - came together to develop plans to synthesize the best practices of modellers from all over the world. The goal of the group is to set up an internationally accepted framework to deal with the ASM type models in practice. This framework shall make modelling more straightforward and systematic to use especially for practitioners and consultants. Additionally, it shall help to define quality levels for simulation results, a procedure to assess this quality and to assist in the proper use of the models.
