Improvements in Rainfall Estimates are obtained by combining together the different available Rainfall Measurement Sources

RAIN GAUGESReliable but point measures

Improvements in Rainfall Estimates are obtained by combining together the different available Rainfall Measurement Sources

RADAR Spatial but less reliable

Improvements in Rainfall Estimates are obtained by combining together the different available Rainfall Measurement Sources

METEOSATSpatial but toocoarse resolution

The MUSIC Prototype Integrates:Hydrologic & Hydraulic modelsGIS and Advanced Visual User Interface

THE MUSIC INTEGRATED SYSTEM PROTOTYPE

RAINFALL INPUTS CAN BE FROM:Gauges, Radar, Satellite and Meteorological Models Forecasts

Rain-gaugemeasurements

KRIGED measurements from gauges

Eliminating the BIAS and producing MINIMUM

VARIANCE precipitation estimates on pixels

ORIGINAL TECHNIQUE TO COMBINE, IN A BAYESIAN SENSE, AREAL PRECIPITATION FIELDS (RADAR) TO POINT MEASUREMENTS OF PRECIPITATION (RAIN-GAUGES)

GROUND BASED

TELE- METERING

RAIN- GAUGE

MEASUREMENTS

- accurate in a point

- spatial significance

decays with the

distance and with

the area

BLOCK KRIGING estimating the average field over theradar pixels and its Variance from the

point rain-gauge measurements

SPATIAL MEASUREMENTS

POINT MEASUREMENTS

RADAR MEASUREMENTS- good spatial representation

- poor quantitative estimates

- biased measurements

SPATIAL MEASUREMENTS

KALMAN FILTERfinding the a posteriori estimates by combining the

a priori estimates provided by the radar with the blockKriged measurements provided by the gauges,

in a Bayesian framework
