Flood Forecasting in CrossGrid Project

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3165))

Abstract

This paper presents a prototype of flood forecasting system based on Grid technologies. The system consists of workflow system for executing simulation cascade of meteorological, hydrological and hydraulic models, data management system for storing and accessing different computed and measured data, and web portals as user interfaces. The whole system is tied together by Grid technology and is used to support a virtual organization of experts, developers and users.
