Effect of digital elevation model’s resolution in producing flood hazard maps
Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters occurring annually in the Philippines. A call for a solution for this malady is very challenging as well as crucial to be addressed. Mapping flood hazard is an effective tool in determining the extent and depth of floods associated with hazard level in specified areas that need to be prioritized during flood occurrences. Precedent to the...
متن کاملFlood hazard zones using 2d hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing approaches
Increasing frequency and severity of flooding demands identification of flood hazard zones in Kalilangan, Bukidnon in response to the echoing need of better disaster preparedness via enhancing the understanding and awareness of the public on flood characteristics by integrating the use of two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing. Flood simulation was carried out in a two-dimensi...

12 The topography of many floodplains in the developed world has now been surveyed with 13 high resolution sensors such as airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), giving 14 accurate Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) that facilitate accurate flood inundation 15 modelling. This is not always the case for remote rivers in developing countries. However, 16 the accuracy of DEMs produced for mode...

متن کاملFlood Extent Prediction from Lake Heights and Water Level Estimation from Flood Extents Using River Gauges, Elevation Models and Envisat Data
Water levels and water extents are essential information in flood monitoring and forecasting. Two experimental and complementary ways were explored in order to estimate water level and water extent and forecast them: 1) The estimation of water level through combining water extents derived from earth observation data with elevation from a Digital Elevation Model; 2) The estimation of flood exten...
