Operational rainfall monitoring Myanmar

Myanmar

Significant decisions are to be made to manage and engineer the water systems in Myanmar and to develop large structural and non-structural projects (e.g. hydropower dams, urban water use, industrial development, extension of irrigation capacity, operational quantity and quality management, etc.). To build on the activities that have been performed and improve current monitoring systems in Myanmar, the project “Leapfrogging Delta Management in Myanmar” was initiated by TU Delft, FutureWater and HKV Consultants, and funded under the Partners for Water program. Based on its experience in operational rainfall monitoring and downscaling to high resolutions using satellite-derived information, FutureWater has developed the first near-real-time spatial rainfall product for Myanmar.
