Date of latest update: 2021-04-06

Description

Description (EN):

Development of a new flood forecast system jointly for the whole area to replace the old outdated and poorly connected systems from the two sides of the border. In future the forecast results will enable the Croatian and Hungarian water authorities to organize and co-ordinate their flood defense efforts in advance, corresponding to the lead time of forecast

Achievements (EN):

Building on the successful co-operation of the project partners in joint monitoring of the border rivers, a new integrated fl ood forecasting system was developed providing all the relevant services in the area, as well as the local inhabitants, with up-to-date information about the water levels in the area, especially important for the rescue and protection services in cases of fl ooding. The data from the measuring stations from both sides of the border are regularly updated and 6-day fl ood forecasts are calculated.
