AFINS_2.0

AFINS 2.0 is software developed by IIAMA-UPV for the statistical analysis of extreme hydrological events. It allows users to work with observed, historical, or paleohydrological data, even if incomplete, using advanced estimation methods and various statistical distributions. It facilitates the calculation of return periods and quantiles of flows or rainfall, supporting the assessment of hydrological risk in water management and safety studies.

AFINS_2.0 is software developed by IIAMA-UPV for the statistical analysis of extreme hydrological events, such as floods or heavy rainfall. It allows users to work with both directly observed data and historical or paleohydrological information, even when it is incomplete or censored. It uses advanced estimation methods, such as maximum likelihood, and offers various distribution functions to adjust the data, thus facilitating the estimation of return periods and quantiles of flows or precipitation. It is, in essence, a technical tool to improve the assessment of hydrological risk in water management and hydraulic safety studies.
