SNI has developed extensive knowledge base on the river morphology in Bangladesh and provides solutions to issues related the river management.
As the rivers are alluvial, frequently shifting their courses unlike other rivers of the world. That’s why stabilizing the river courses as well as for any intervention in the flood plains requires an extensive understanding of the geo and river morphological dimensions. Thus, the morphological analysis of time-series data and data collected from physical survey are routinely analyzed and the changes in the river courses are monitored and forecasted.
The tidal river management (TRM) approach is an indigenous management practice in the Southwest part of the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh. This approach has a high potential for extending area under agriculture with a positive impact on sustainable production and consequently on sustainable land use planning.

Over the years, SNI has generated considerable knowledge and experiences to understand the river morphology, tidal river management as well as its role in the delta building process.

In SNI The River Management Program provides technical and regulatory assistance for those activities that involve construction or excavation in rivers and streams.

The following models are developed and being perfected by our team.

The Tidal River Management (TRM) Approach

At SNI, River Management Engineers issue stream alteration permits and provides river diagnostics, alternatives analysis, project design, and construction inspection for instream work. They also provide technical and regulatory assistance for emergency and next-flood protective measures during flood recovery operations.
