Developing high resolution remote sensing technology into an advanced knowledge management system to monitor and assess water resources

Remote sensing technology can directly contribute to water resource management and provides unique methods and solutions to meet the information requirements of water engineers responsible for water resources management. This project aims to advance the application of Remote Sensing in the context of managing water resource by integrating high resolution remote sensing technology into a Knowledge Management System for the management of water resources and the infrastructure to control them. Remote Sensing Technology is used to complement the development of a Knowledge Management System by advancing the remote sensing capability and image processing to near-real time. This capability can be used to monitor and assess a river basin to develop flood extent and predictions.
