Now available as subscription software to unify and streamline flood modeling
Supports faster, data-driven decisions on infrastructure flood resilience
DALLAS, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobs (NYSE:J) has introduced Flood Platform, a cloud-hosted hub for advanced flood modeling that supports planning and delivery of critical flood infrastructure programs worldwide.
Now available as a subscription-based software-as-a-service offering, Flood Platform is the first purpose-built tool designed to unify and streamline flood modeling processes with Flood Modeller. Leveraging Jacobs' capabilities in areas such as digital solutions, cloud integration, cybersecurity, data management and artificial intelligence (AI), the platform standardizes how users manage, view and analyze flood-related data.
With flooding and extreme weather events becoming more frequent and severe, clients face the challenge of managing and interpreting large volumes of data to plan and deliver resilient infrastructure. Flood Platform helps bring this information together to support faster, evidence-based decision making.
Jacobs Executive Vice President Amer Battikhi said: "At Jacobs, we integrate digital, data and AI capabilities throughout our global delivery portfolio to solve complex client challenges. Flood Platform demonstrates how cloud-based technology and automation can improve infrastructure planning and modeling – helping clients make more informed decisions and achieve faster project delivery and strengthened resilience."
Built on Microsoft Azure's technology, Flood Platform provides a flexible, scalable and more secure environment where users can upload data, manage access permissions, perform analysis, and collaborate smoothly with both internal teams and external stakeholders.
Acting as a central location for data, simulations and collaboration, the platform integrates with trusted flood modeling tools like Jacobs' Flood Modeller.
Flood Platform was originally developed by Jacobs for internal use and has supported project delivery for more than 15 years. In response to client needs, Jacobs refined and expanded its capabilities, and it is now available as a subscription service to organizations worldwide. This platform has been instrumental in supporting significant projects such as Melbourne Water's Flood Mapping Program, which aims to provide comprehensive flood mapping for all municipalities across Greater Melbourne and the Westernport region, and the Environment Agency's Oxford-Cambridge Arc Flood Risk Investment Study, which helped unlock more than $134 billion (£100 billion) in economic value.
