SCREENING OF VULNERABILITY TO CLOUDBURST FLOODINGELEVATION MODELS

Linda Bredahl, Senior Consultant, M.Sc.

JUNE 2017

causes heavier rain events in Denmark and problems with subsequent drainage of the terrain in urban areas.

To assess how vulnerable an area is to flooding we analyse the hydrological conditions of the terrain - using Model Builder.

The weather

becomes more extreme:

•Higher rain intensities

•Higher wind speeds

•Longer droughts

Various methods are used depending on the project area, its characteristics and purpose for each project - all involving Spatial Analyst and 3D Analyst.

Terrain regulation is done, using ArcGIS tools, to create urban areas and climate resilient cities

BACKGROUND EXAMPLE

July 2011: The capital of Denmark was hit by the worst and most destructive cloudburst in the city’s history

Damages caused by floods:6 billion DKK or approx. 1,07 billion USD

150 millimeters of rain in 2 hours

STANDARD LOW POINT SCREENING

Screening of surface (not detailed calculation with sewer pipe system)

JUNE 2017

MODEL FOR STANDARD SCREENING

Standard: fill up to 25 cm! If the terrain is very flat this gives some very big basins.

Con…

The basins of a certain size, most commonly 1 ha - depends on the characteristics of the terrain
