Henrik Probus Ossian Solitander – Finnish hydraulic engineer

The technological culture in Finland is in many cases based on the work and engagement of individual teachers and researchers. H.P.O. Solitander, a legend in his own time, was a second-generation Finnish engineer, whose mission in life turned out to be the modernization of Finland's ports and canal networks, guiding the country's hydraulic engineering through times of war, and educating a new, postwar generation of engineers.
