Flood Forecasting and River Monitoring Expert System in the Prahova River Basin

Abstract

The development of an efficient flood forecasting and river monitoring system requires the use of an automated data acquisition system and the analysis of several hydrographic basin parameters that are monitored. Due to the strategic importance of river basin monitoring, in the last years, different modern techniques were applied, including some techniques based on artificial intelligence, such as ANFIS system, agent-based modeling and neural networks. In this paper is proposed a flood forecasting and river monitoring expert system prototype. Some experimental results obtained for the prototype expert system are presented.
