Satellite Rainfall for the Nile River Catchment
As part of a United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization project, HRC
developed an improved multispectral satellite rainfall estimation system. The satellite rainfall estimates were input to an operational flow forecasting and reservoir management system running at the Nile Forecast Center in Cairo, Egypt, and designed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS), the Georgia Institute of Technology (GIT), FAO, and HRC in 1999.
