Asset Management

Morphum provides support to water assets at all stages of an asset’s lifecycle.

It is essential to understand the condition of your stormwater assets as well as the design and regulatory requirements. Our team can help you strengthen your understanding of your assets, find sustainable solutions and provide the best-quality service in line with all regulatory conditions.

We use data collection and a GIS-based asset management system to conduct risk-based prioritisation, enabling recommendations to be made and reports to be produced for compliance and informed decision-making.

Stakeholder & Community Engagement Services

Catchment Planning

No two catchments are the same, and no two communities are the same.

Effective catchment planning requires active engagement with stakeholders and communities.

We facilitate meaningful conversations and collaborations, ensuring that all voices are heard and considered. This inclusive approach helps build consensus and fosters long-term stewardship and care for Country.

Integrated Water Management (IWM) Planning

Morphum Environmental’s approach to Integrated Water Management (IWM) planning begins by gaining a comprehensive understanding of your water networks.

We follow a comprehensive and collaborative process to examine water networks and establish fundamental data to develop an effective IWM plan. With fundamental data established, an effective IWM is no longer a pipe dream.

Our expert team of geospatial specialists, civil and environmental engineers and urban water planners deliver an IWM strategy that is interactive and versatile with an online tool that can be used for ongoing planning, monitoring and reporting.

Our five-step geospatial data process includes:

1. Drainage Data Discovery

We begin by gaining a deep understanding of the current state of your stormwater drainage data network and explore opportunities for robust data uses.

2. Network Development

We connect the dots to create a municipal-scale connected drainage data network.

3. Data Integration & Improvement

An advanced network understanding is developed by integrating overland flow paths and land use types.

4. Network Analysis

Using advanced GIS tools, we support you to interrogate your network, (including upstream and downstream network tracing) through receiving environments including waterways, wetlands, dry ponds and eventually out to the final discharge point of the municipality.

5. IWM Enabling Projects

These outputs enable innovative IWM projects including pollutant load modelling, WSUD location prioritisation, development services planning, sub-catchment delineation, WSUD asset maintenance prioritisation and more.

Ahead Of The Challenges

Preparing for the catchment challenges before they arrive.

Informed decision making is the heart of preparation, and Morphum's effective catchment planning gives our clients the ability to make informed decisions for water catchments.

With a holistic view of the complex web of variables that both affect and are affected by our waterways, we can create positive change together.

Emergency & Flood Response

Understanding the unique characteristics of your catchment area is the basis for effective planning, and we take the time to learn the entire flow path, embracing the complexity.

Our in-house geospatial, engineering and science teams conduct thorough assessments to gather data on hydrology, geology, land use, and biodiversity, before visualising these in tailored tools and reports.
