Advances in integrated data collection, analyses and flood modeling of complex urban systems
Session ID#: 85529
Session Description:
Recent unprecedented extreme events have highlighted that the existing approach for managing flood risk is inadequate for complex urban systems because of its over reliance on simplistic methods, lack of model physicality and inadequate treatment of interconnectedness of the HydroGrid, a complex multi-layer network of water in natural and built environments. To increase flood resilience in urban environments, we must leverage current advances in integrated modeling of physical processes, and emerging technologies in data collection and analysis across the urban system. This session invites studies demonstrating: (i) the application of hyper-resolution flood modeling and forecasting frameworks for urban systems, (ii) systems analysis and data science techniques for advancing flood resilience, (iii) information delivery technologies for real-time decision-making across the entirety of the urban system, (iv) use of novel data collection methods, including citizen science for improving urban flood prediction, and (v) integrated modeling, and physical and financial flood mitigation strategies.
