摘要: In Slovenia intense short and less long-duration rainfall is a primary cause of shallow landslides that some estimates put at 10,000, or approximately one landslide per two square kilometres. These events impose huge burden on local state budgets, occasionally even taking lives. At least part the damage (and loss lives) could be prevented with reliable near real-time hazard forecast system would continuously draw from three data/model pillars: precipitation model, susceptibility model triggering values for occurrence. Each pillars brings uncertainty to forecast. A project was set up possible occurrence rainfall-induced in (acronym “Masprem”), tackling all pillars, but focusing primarily values. With goal an automated will eventually promptly available online general public, challenges data conversion transfer between servers, continuous development serving intermediate results web were dealt with. The challenging task, through time whole coarser scale same selected municipalities more detailed scale. lessons learned presented this paper.
