Google expands AI-driven flood forecast to all of India, Bangladesh

As floods wreak havoc, Google on Tuesday said it is expanding its Artificial Intelligence-powered flood forecasting to all of India and Bangladesh that will provide greater details on timing and water depths in nine local languages.

Google launched a new forecasting model that will allow it to double the lead time of many of its alerts — providing more notice to governments and giving millions of people an extra day or so to prepare.
