Abstract

Water quality forecasting plays a significant role in managing environmental resources and safeguarding public health. In this paper, a data-driven approach is proposed to forecast water quality parameters using advanced data analytics and machine learning techniques. Policies in this context refer to algorithmic rules governing the system's predictive behaviour to ensure consistent, accurate, and reliable outcomes. The methodology involves gathering and processing historical water quality records alongside meteorological and environmental data to build an adaptive forecasting model. The system identifies anomalies, patterns, and correlations using various regression and classification algorithms. Multiple stakeholders such as environmental monitoring agencies, public health departments, and data scientists form an interconnected structure responsible for data supervision and model updates. Based on their roles, access privileges determine who can update or validate predictions. The data preprocessing initiates the model training process, where secure data handling ensures model integrity. Advanced analytics tools help in selecting relevant features and optimizing performance. Finally, the integration of these models provides a reliable forecast system for identifying potential contamination, thereby enabling timely action and sustainable water resource management.
