Our challenge
Benefits of a more complicated approachMinimal increase in modelling costs
12
Possible solutions
Improved screening toolsAutomate parts of the processImportant samples / re-sampling
13
Bonus challenge
synthetic spatial rainfallWeather radar and raingauges available
Varying qualityVarying temporal resolutionVarying length of recordIrregularly spaced
