Abstract

The Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation or GSMaP data which is used to display the rainfall data was used to analyze and create the rainfall forecasting model. This work is the evaluation of this rainfall forecasting model which is the short-term forecast. The GSMaP forecasting data were matched with the GSMaP history data and calculate their similarity values by applying the original image matching method. The modification of Rainfall Forecasting Model and its evaluation that applied the original image instead of the image hash improve the accuracy of rainfall forecasted results.
