Monitoring of Flooding in Urban Areas

2007 Urban Remote Sensing Joint Event, 2007
Urban areas are crowded environments, where a disaster can bring dramatic consequences, if not adequately forecasted and faced. Remote sensing instruments can be fruitfully used for both prediction and aid organization purposes. In particular, in this paper we present innovative synthetic aperture radar (SAR) techniques for the detection of a flooded ...

Flood Impact on Urban Transport Networks Considering the Flooding Propagation

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
Urban flooding significantly impacts transport networks and the mobility of people and associated air quality. This paper introduces a new dynamic framework to quantify and analyse the indirect economic and environmental impacts of flooding on transport networks from multiple perspectives, including time delay, fuel consumption, and pollutant emissions.

Secondary benefits of urban flood protection

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
The combined effects of urbanization and climate change put a large portion of the population at risk from pluvial, fluvial, and coastal flooding. To continue to strive for sustainable development, cities will need to protect flood-prone areas, but this will require significant investments in both green and grey infrastructure solutions.
