Abstract
Flooding is a destructive phenomenon that can risk human life, damage homes and have huge economic impacts. To plan and implement effective mitigation strategies, it is necessary to predict when and where flooding will occur. Based on a combination of rain gauge and river discharge measurement taken from the River Don catchment, UK this study proposes a Support Vector Machine (SVM) based approach to predicting river. The purpose of this work is to show the potential of the SVM method for predicting future flood events.
