In this study, the effectiveness of existing streamflow data collection networks in the Han and the Nakdong River Basin is evaluated for various gaging plans of 5, 10, 15 and 20years planning horizons by the nonlinear integer programming method, and also a technique for adjustment and planning of the existing network is provided for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of the network in terms of ecomony. The objective function is minimization of the average sampling mean square error of regional regression model with regression parameters estimated by generalized least squares method.
