Explore real-time flood forecasting techniques through two case studies in this 59-minute webinar. Examine a project in India's Bagmati-Adhwara River Basin that integrates TUFLOW models with Delft-FEWS, featuring ensemble modeling, hot-starting models, and variable geometry simulation for embankment failures. Then, investigate an Australian example on the Gold Coast utilizing a cloud-based system for multi-catchment monitoring and flood intelligence. Learn about software design, rainfall data processing, hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, inundation mapping, and the evolution of flood forecasting systems. Gain insights into the value proposition, framework, and future developments in this field, followed by an extensive Q&A session.
