Abstract: Based on our previous work on water quality management using an object-oriented software system (SMILE), this paper presents the design of real-time online hydrological information and modelling system using object-oriented approach and relational database. Key technical issues of the implementation of O-O modelling system on a relational database have been investigated. A prototype system has been built for river flows in the Upper Mersey river catchment. The potential of its application in flood defence has been explored.
