Benchmarking global dam safety systems emergency preparedness
[edit] Flood surveys
- integrate approach to data collection and management taking into account ground and satellite based technology,
- evaluate alternative procedures using remote sensing technologies, incorporating the *hydrometric network and hydrodynamic studies,
- institute joint plan of action among regional pilot projects,
- practice real time reception of meteorological satellite data,
- promote national capacities for processing and use of flood data, and
- encourage further regional cooperation.
[edit] Flood forecasting and river modelling
- modernize present flood forecasting system of MRCS with new components such as pattern recognition techniques to process rainfall forecasts, distributed hydrological modelling, hydrodynamic and flow modelling etc.,
- include the great lake area of Cambodia and the Mekong delta in Vietnam,
- exchange information and data transfer between regional and national centres, reinforce centres, and
- adopt a consistent and harmonized line of software for database management, simulation modelling and water resources planning.
[edit] Lao visual learning protocols
- study flood phenomena on the Vientiane plain,
- operate reservoirs on a multipurpose basis,
- implement flood protection schemes based on typographic data and time dependent hydrologic simulation, and
- use differential GPS for topographic mapping.
