A machine learning model for hydrometric forecasting is proposed, utilizing LiDAR terrain elevation data encoded through a Vision Transformer (ViT) to capture spatial features. The model incorporates both static and dynamic graph learning structures, combining transformer-encoded LiDAR data with graph convolutional networks (GCNs). The proposed method reduces prediction error by an average of 10% across all days, with greater improvements for longer forecasting horizons.

A team of researchers created a new way to predict water levels. They used special technology that measures the height of land to help their model understand how water flows. This model can look at pictures of the landscape and use that information to make predictions about where the water will go. The model is really good at guessing where the water will be in the future, especially when it’s looking far ahead.
