The utility of using Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) for evaluating pluvial flood models [PDF]
Science of The Total Environment, 2023 Pluvial floods are increasingly threatening urban environments worldwide due to human-induced climate change. High-resolution, state-of-the-art pluvial flood models are urgently needed to inform climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction measures but are generally not empirically tested because of the rarity of local high-intensity ...
