As early as 2021, we set the course for Linux versions of Flux Operational and FLORIS/F3 in a project we carried out for the Austrian and Bavarian authorities as well as for AHP and VHP.
A key point here is that FLORIS is integrated into Flux Operational as a library (API) and that higher-level programs such as FEWS, HUGO or HoPI thus only need to start and monitor a single external program. The integration into these programs, which form the backbone of many flood forecasting systems, has thus become much simpler and safer.
