Short summary

This study deals with the application of freely available datasets coupled with open source GIS software in hydrological modelling, greatly improving cost and time effectiveness of the estimation of design discharges in ungauged catchments. Using the developed system, methodologies currently in use in hydrological practice in Serbia were evaluated and the results yielded very good resemblance compared to frequency analysis. Examples of real-world application for over 2500 catchments are shown.
