Description
The European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) forms part of the Copernicus Emergency Management System. The EFAS system generates hydrological forecasts by cascading an ensemble of meteorological forecasts from different providers through a deterministic pan-European hydrological model. Initial conditions for the forecast are derived from observed hydro-meteorological data.
From the hydrological and meteorological forecasts a number of forecast products are produced to highlight the potential hazard of flash or riverine flooding and the associated risk in the medium range (2-10 days)
