 AITER: AI-driven water assistant\, led by Sumaqua and funded by province o
 f Vlaams-Brabant Their common goal is to improve and integrate weather fo
 recasts with impact-based warning systems for extreme precipitation and fl
 oods. We invite and welcome associated stakeholders and national and inte
 rnational experts to strengthen our cooperation and give feedback on our p
 roducts related to precipitation observation\, forecasts and warnings.Some
  practical information1. Workshop format:The workshop is planned as a one-
 day in-person event in Brussels. We are not planning a hybrid format.The w
 orkshop is specifically aimed at users in Belgium. However\, discussions w
 ith experts from outside Belgium could also be mutually beneficial.2. Prog

 s products and new developments in the morning (09:30-12:00). Participants
  will\, of course\, have the opportunity to ask questions during this sess
 ion.Lunch will be provided on site.The afternoon is reserved for all parti
 cipants to present their work on the topic of precipitation and alerts\, a
 nd to share their experiences (13:30-15:30). The final session will featur
 e an open exchange and discussion (16:00-17:00).Please note that you can i
 ndicate on the registration form whether you would like to give a presenta
