Thanks
to the financial support by JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration
Agency) and RESTEC (Remote Sensing Technology Center) of Japan, IDI has
developed the Satellite-based Precipitation Data Delivery System, which
automatically provides satellite-monitoring precipitation data every
hour both for the river basin and for the administrative district. It
also notifies with different colors whether the accumulated
precipitation in some river basin or district exceeds the
pre-calculated probable precipitation with some return period (such as
once in two-years, or once in five-years).
The trial version is now utilized by the Government of Thailand in
order to prevent and to be well prepared for flood disasters during
flood season this year.
The detailed information will be found on the below site.
