AI-Powered Streamflow Prediction: Hands-on Workshop with Google Cloud Platform to apply Google’s Flood Forecasting methods for your research
Day 2 Session 2 (1:30 PM MDT)
Presenters:
Kel Markert
Google
This workshop will introduce participants to Google’s Flood Forecasting system and demonstrate how to train and predict streamflow using the open-source methods with Google Cloud services like Earth Engine and Vertex AI. Through hands-on exercises, attendees will gain practical experience in building and applying AI models for streamflow prediction.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand the principles behind Google’s Flood Forecasting system and its AI models.
- Gain practical skills in using Google Earth Engine for accessing and processing geospatial data as inputs to hydrologic modeling.
- Learn how to build and deploy AI models for streamflow prediction using Vertex AI.
- Apply the acquired knowledge to develop and customize streamflow forecasting models for specific regions.
Prerequisites:
Knowledge
- General understanding of hydrologic modeling and AI
- Experience with Python coding.
- Experience with using a Cloud Platform (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) is a nice to have but not required
