Support
The development of BaRatin was supported financially, technically and scientifically by several institutions or projects:
- INRAE, the employer of BaRatin’s developers
- SCHAPI (Hydro-meteorology and flood forecasting service) has been funding the development of BaRatin from early on and facilitates fruitful exchanges with users from the French national hydrometric network
- CNR (concessionary of the Rhone River) funded several developments, in particular through PhDs co-funding
- BaRatin was supported by the ANR (French National Research Agency) through the FloodScale research project
- BaRatin was supported by the french ministries for Europe and Foreign Affairs (MEAE) and for Higher Education and Research (MESR) through the Dumont d’Urville program
- WMO (World Meteorological Organization) is associated to BaRatin webinars, through its Project X
- BaRatin greatly benefited from the feedback of many users, in particular users from NEON and USGS (US), and from ACUMAR (Argentina)
