متن کاملAdaptive Flood Warning and River Management
Recent research carried out in CRES has produced a data-based modelling approach to the adaptive forecasting of river flow or levels using rainfall or upstream flow inputs as leading indicators. This approach, which is based on the estimation of a general transfer function model from historical data, has significant advantages over existing flood forecasting methods: for example, on-line adjust...
متن کاملVirtual Dike and Flood Simulator: Parallel distributed computing for flood early warning systems
The paper presents two simulation modules –Virtual Dike and Flood Simulator– developed for flood Early Warning Systems (EWS). The UrbanFlood EWS is a distributed system that (1) analyzes sensor data received in real-time from flood defenses (dikes, dams, etc.) and (2) simulates dike stability, breaching and flood propagation. Computational modules are invoked by workflow-based expert scenarios ...
متن کاملMobile Internet GIS based Flood Warning and Information Systems
The recent flood disasters showed that available warning systems do not fully fulfill their requirements and potentials. This paper examines these regarding web-based and mobile GIS based flood information and warning systems. We present first prototypes that are being developed at the University of Applied Sciences Mainz for a pilot area at the Rhine and give an outlook on the state of art and...
متن کاملNEXRAD Flood Warning System and Floodplain Library for Houston, TX
Early flood warning systems protect both infrastructure and human life by issuing accurate flood warnings to public and private entities, enabling emergency personnel to employ strategic procedures. One such system, the RiceU/TMC Flood Alert System (FAS) has proved effective at predicting flood levels along Brays Bayou for 30 major storm events since 1997, including T.S. Allison in 2001. The cu...
