At IFAT 2026, Ott and In-Situ’s Thought Leadership Program brought together expertise and technology through a series of concise, expert‑led sessions held throughout the week. Short talks explored how modern hydrology and water analytics were evolving in response to climate change, increasing system complexity, and rising demands for reliable, actionable data.

Across recurring daily sessions, Ott and In‑Situ experts shared practical perspectives on resilient water management, smarter monitoring strategies, and the role of digital and contactless measurement technologies – from video analytics and UVT monitoring to flood management and wastewater process control. Designed for water professionals, the program delivered focused insight, proven approaches, and forward‑looking ideas grounded in decades of hydrological and application expertise.
