What's inside

  • Water Storage
  • Machine Learning

What you can do with it

Typical work that data of this type supports.

  1. 01

    Storage tracking

    Follow storage and releases through the season.

    Because it has: Water Storage

  2. 02

    Change over time

    See how lakes and wetlands have grown or shrunk.

  3. 03

    Design flows

    Estimate 1-in-50 and 1-in-100 year floods for bridges, culverts and spillways.

Where AI adds value

Ideas for machine learning and AI agents built on this kind of data.

  1. 01

    Storage from space

    Estimate volume from satellite water area and altimetry.

  2. 02

    Release decisions

    Optimise releases against inflow forecasts.

  3. 03

    Flow forecasting

    Train LSTM-style models on past records to forecast river levels and flow days ahead.
