This paper describes the development of the Andhra Pradesh river flood forecasting system. The system provides state-wide flood forecasting using state-of-the-art technology, including real-time data collection from field stations, rainfall-runoff and river hydraulic models, and a GIS-based Graphical User Interface allowing visualisation of model results, and automated warning preparation and dissemination. The system dramatically improves the technology available to assist flood forecasting in Andhra Pradesh and provides the state with one of the most advanced and largest flood forecasting systems of its type in the world.
