PARFLOOD
Forecast models of bank breaks and flooding scenarios
Objective
Simulation of real-time flood hydrographs and flooding scenarios, applying forecast models of bank breaks following overflow of the Lamone river, in order to prevent and mitigate the possible consequences due to flooding of the area surrounding the watercourse.
Scope | Environmental disaster risk prevention |
Data | Digital terrain models, geomorphological characteristics of watercourses, historical floods and return times. |
Methodology | Machine learning, proprietary software (parflood), licensed interface software (FEWS) |
Responsible structure | Emilia-Romagna Agency for Safety and Civil Protection |
External subjects | University of Padua, University of Parma |
