Opportunities for multivariate analysis of open spatial datasets to characterize urban flooding risks [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015 Cities worldwide are challenged by increasing urban flood risks. Precise and realistic measures are required to reduce flooding impacts. However, currently implemented sewer and topographic models do not provide realistic predictions of local flooding

Urban Flood Prediction through GIS-Based Dual-Coupled Hydraulic Models
Hydrology, 2022 Propagation of pluvial floods in urban areas, occurring with return time periods of few years, can be well solved using dual models accounting for the mutual relationship between the water level in the streets and the discharges inside the sewer pipes ...

Ensemble Radar-Based Rainfall Forecasts for Urban Hydrological Applications
Geosciences, 2018 Radar rainfall forecasting is of major importance to predict flows in the sewer system to enhance early flood warning systems in urban areas. In this context, reducing radar rainfall estimation uncertainties can improve rainfall forecasts.
