Monitoring and management of water levels has become an essential task in obtaining hydroelectric power. Activities such as water resources planning, supply basin management and flood forecasting are mediated and defined through its monitoring. Measurements, performed by sensors installed on the river facilities, are used for precisely information about water level estimations. Since weather conditions influence the results obtained by these sensors, it is necessary to have redundant approaches in order to maintain the high accuracy of the measured values. Staff gauge monitored by conventional cameras is a common redundancy method to keep track of the measurements. However, this method has low accuracy and is not reliable once it is monitored by human eyes. This work proposes to automate this process by using image processing methods of the staff gauge to measure and deep neural network to estimate the water level. To that end, three models of neural networks were compared: the residual networks (ResNet50), a MobileNetV2 and a proposed model of convolutional neural network (CNN). The results showed that ResNet50 and MobileNetV2 present inferior results compared to the proposed CNN.

Several cities in Brazil undergo a territorial expansion and inhabitants constantly, this process is called urbanization. An uncontrolled urbanization generates many difficulties, highlighting the mobility of public transport, since many citizens depend on this mobility, we have, for example, public transport in Goiânia, which directly affects the living conditions of passengers. For your foreknowledge, a model capable of mirroring the performance of your demand is essential, providing that the system meets users in an acceptable way. A two-dimensional CNN is a CNN model that has a hidden convolutional layer that operates on a 1D sequence, it is a convenient mechanism to simulate a univariate forecast of time series of the predictive service of Goiânia's public transport. The method is equivalent to an analysis of the focal parts that make up the public transport system and how to represent it in the 1D convolutional
