Problem the AI is intended to solve
Accurate prediction of flood and drought impacts requires understanding upstream surface water storage dynamics and storage capacity
Expected benefits
classify satellite imagery into open and vegetated water extent, use deep learning algorithms to relate daily river discharge to meteorology and surface water storage dynamics
System outputs
upstream surface water storage dynamics and storage capacity
