Flood modelling using data available on the Internet

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The aim of this study was to determine if sufficient data at no charge is available on the Internet to use as input to a free and open source hydrological model for use in a flood monitoring system. As such, the monitoring system would be SensorWeb enabled. The study area is the C83A quaternary catchment (746 km2) in the Northern Free State, part of the Vaal primary catchment in South Africa.
