Abstract

The drastic decline in the hydrometeorological network in developing countries since 1980 has marked another major phase in the application of computing and information systems to hydrological science. The computing era has brought about the development of a more reliable hydrological information system, complex mathematical and statistical modeling and simulation in hydrology and the PUB approach. This paper examines the prospects of the NigeriaSat-1 data for hydrological model parameterization towards sustainable water resources management in Nigeria.
