By training machine learning models, Google was able to predict some floods up to seven days in advance. The tech giant used all available river data and applied the machine learning model to basins where no data was available. This achievement was published in Nature, a leading multidisciplinary science journal. Google’s ultimate goal is to scale the accuracy of flood forecasting to a global level, even in areas where local data is not available. Google has been able to provide forecasts to over 80 countries through its Flood Hub. It also delivers alerts on Google Search, Maps, and Android notifications.
