This project involves the participation of FREE project partners, CEH's established KE intermediaries, and end users including various associations. The work to be undertaken is described below. The objective of all of these different actions is to speed up the process of FREE research into effective use within identified operational methods and tools, or in policy, and as soon as is feasibly possible. All actions with will take place within existing arrangements for IPR licensing and exploitation. 1. KE Facilitator and Project Coordination A part time Project Facilitator will support the delivery of the overall KE project. The facilitator will oversee the delivery of the individual components, ensure coherence of the different activities, and strengthening of floods researcher - user networks. In addition, the Facilitator will be responsible for maximising delivery of FREE research outputs into application-ready formats and drafting an impact assessment review of the project. The Project Facilitator will be assisted by senior staff from CEH and partner organisations, providing advice and back-up. Together they will address problematic issues as they arise, and develop options to maximize progress towards economic benefits. 2. Mapping FREE Research Outputs An initial action will be to map, in detail, the research outputs of relevant FREE projects. This action will involve project PI's in identifying key programme outputs, and then agreeing the optimum approach to maximising impacts from those outputs. Some of these outputs will require considerably more research before they are ready for use in applications tools, or as reliable science support to policy. Other outputs are expected to relate to communications and KE actions which are beyond the scope of this proposed project. Where outputs clearly have the potential feed into the identified routes to application or policy, a development plan will be prepared to describe those actions required to speed up transition from outputs to practice or policy. These results will be discussed at a 'kick-off' workshop. 3. Research to policy and practice workshops Four other workshops will be organised in conjunction with project partners having the objectives of facilitating dialogue between FREE researchers and stakeholders/end users. They will be held at partner premises and be used to : a. Discuss mapping results, the implications of FREE policy-relevant research to key policymakers, and obtain their feedback of to aid drafting policy briefs. b. Scope development plans by which FREE outputs will be prepared for use in established flood estimation, forecasting, and flood risk assessment tools. c. Scoping future research priorities through science and policy foresight. d. Strengthening the integration of target end-users into research networks e. Improving dialogue / network building with the wider floods community through contributions to the Annual EA-DEFRA Floods conference 4. Network Building The network building activities will focus upon strengthening existing, and building new linkages between the floods research community and key target end user groups. These include organisations responsible for flood defence, critical infrastructure (water, electricity, transport); emergency services and local government; insurance and flood protection organisations. Most of the activities in this KE project will contribute in some way to network building. However, the main drivers will be the Facilitator, the workshops, the presentation of FREE outputs at the EA-DEFRA Floods Conference and via web communications including podcasts. 5. Code Writing This KE project will fund a small amount (20 days) of software programming where appropriate. 6. Training Courses FREE research outputs will be integrated into and used to update existing training programmes for FEH, flood risk and forecasting, including the revision of training material and re-training of trainers.

该项目涉及FREE项目合作伙伴，CEH建立的KE中介机构以及包括各种协会在内的最终用户的参与。将进行的工作说明如下。所有这些不同行动的目标是在可行的情况下尽快加快免费研究的进程，以便在确定的业务方法和工具内或在政策中有效使用。所有行动都将在现有的知识产权许可和利用安排内进行。1. 一个兼职的项目协调人将支持整个KE项目的交付。促进者将监督各个组成部分的交付，确保不同活动的一致性，并加强洪水研究人员-用户网络。此外，调解人将负责最大限度地将免费的研究成果转化为可申请的格式，并起草项目的影响评估审查。项目协调人将由CEH和合作伙伴组织的高级人员协助，提供建议和支持。他们将共同解决出现的问题，并制定各种备选办法，最大限度地实现经济利益。2. 绘制免费研究成果的初步行动将是详细绘制相关免费项目的研究成果。这一行动将涉及项目PI确定关键的方案产出，然后商定最佳方法以最大限度地发挥这些产出的影响。其中一些产出在准备用于应用工具或作为对政策的可靠科学支持之前，将需要进行相当多的研究。预计其他产出将涉及超出本拟议项目范围的通信和环境行动。如果产出显然有可能成为确定的应用或政策路线的一部分，则将编制一份发展计划，描述加速从产出向实践或政策过渡所需的行动。这些结果将在“启动”研讨会上进行讨论。3. 从研究到政策和实践讲习班将与项目伙伴一起组织另外四个讲习班，目的是促进免费研究人员与利益相关者/最终用户之间的对话。它们将在合作伙伴场所举行，用于：a.讨论测绘结果，免费政策相关研究对主要决策者的影响，并获得他们的反馈，以帮助起草政策简报。b.编制免费产出的范围发展计划，用于既定的洪水估计、预报和洪水风险评估工具。c.通过科学和政策远见确定未来的研究重点。d.加强目标最终用户与研究网络的整合e.通过为环境和环境管理局年度洪水会议作出贡献，改善与更广泛的洪水社区的对话/网络建设网络建设活动将侧重于加强洪水研究界与主要目标最终用户群体之间的现有联系和建立新的联系。这些机构包括负责防洪、关键基础设施（水、电、交通）的组织；紧急服务和地方政府；保险及防洪机构。本KE项目的大部分活动将以某种方式为网络建设做出贡献。然而，主要的推动因素将是调解人、研讨会、在环境与环境管理局洪水会议上展示免费产出，以及通过包括播客在内的网络交流。5. 代码编写本KE项目将在适当情况下资助少量（20天）的软件编程。6. 培训课程免费的研究成果将纳入并用于更新现有的FEH、洪水风险和预报培训课程，包括修订培训材料和重新培训培训人员。
