Surface Fitting and the Structure of Rainfall Data
Abstract
The seminar will give an account of the application of surface fitting
algorithms to the
approximation of rainfall data.
Information systems for government and primary producers require the
input of meteorological
data; the models which use this data are computationally intensive and
thus require.
algorithms with the potential for data storage and computional
efficieny.
Some analysis of the temporal and spatial structure of rainfall data
will be presented and
the impact of this structure on the choice of surface fitting algoritms
will be discussed.
