Machine learning for stream velocity prediction

Low riskExact public inventory row

Description

To predict stream velocity from streamflow and geographic attributes.

Detailed example

Prediction of stream velocity at a location.

AI / analytics pattern

Classical/Predictive Machine Learning: Models trained on data to make predictions or classifications based on identified patterns or relationships.

Automation level / stage

a) Pre-deployment – The use case is in a development or acquisition status.

Expected benefit

USGS possess unusually deep knowledge of biological radar targets which can readily be confused with drones, since both fall into the category of "low and slow" flying targets.
