Simplified Flood Inundation Mapping Based On Flood Elevation-Discharge Rating Curves Using Satellite Images in Gauged Watersheds
This study suggests an approach to obtain flood extent boundaries using spatial analysis based on Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper imageries and the digital elevation model. The suggested approach firstly extracts the flood inundation areas using the ISODATA image-processing algorithm from four Landsat 5TM imageries. Then, the ground elevations at the intersections of the extracted flood extent bounda...
متن کاملnumerical evaluation of maximum flood discharge using scs method for land management on watersheds of kan area
flood is one of the major hydroecological phenomena that in each period causes damages to human achievements. therefore, controlling this phenomenon is the subject of many researchers' works and studies specially hydrologists who have tried to predict the flood`s possible behavior by modeling it. this paper is trying to help one of the most widely used methods to estimate the maximum disch...
متن کاملOptimal Flood Mitigation over Flood Propagation Approximations
Globally, flooding is the most frequent among all natural disasters, commonly resulting in damage to infrastructure, economic catastrophe, and loss of life. Since the flow of water is influenced by the shape and height of topography, an effective mechanism for preventing and directing floods is to use structures that increase height, e.g., levees and sandbags. In this paper, we introduce the Op...
متن کاملOptimal Spatial Design of Capacity and Quantity of Rainwater Harvesting Systems for Urban Flood Mitigation
This study adopts rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS) into a stormwater runoff management model (SWMM) for the spatial design of capacities and quantities of rain barrel for urban flood mitigation. A simulation-optimization model is proposed for effectively identifying the optimal design. First of all, we particularly classified the characteristic zonal subregions for spatial design by using fu...
متن کاملScreening watersheds of Ardabil province concerning flood vulnerability
In recent years, the world has faced many challenges. Among the natural phenomena, the flood effect has attracted a lot of attention due to its adverse effects. More than half of the destruction and damage caused by global flooding occurs in the Asian continent, which causes loss of life, damage to infrastructure, and creates conditions of panic in communities. Increasing resilience is critical...
