                         Area of (CMA) in the summer of 2003/2004. This period was 
                         associated with convective and stratiform meteorological systems 
                         which presented good representativity of various real atmospheric 
                         states. An example of quantitative precipitation estimation is 
                         presented in this paper, for the purpose of flood events 
                         estimation with a hydrological model in the CMA. The results 
                         indicate that, although satellite precipitation estimation 
                         presents good results in low to medium precipitation cases, and 
                         radar estimates results indicated improvements when the field was 
                         obtained using an advection technique, the integration of radar, 
                         satellite and raingauges present better results and should be 
                         investigated more. The integration of radar and satellite 
                         precipitation will also improve the precipitation field for use in 
                         the hydrological and meteorological models mainly in flashflood 
                         events and in regions where a dense network of raingauges are not
