CASE03

Flood risk

Estimating flooding status from observation information

Functions to use

Flood Flows

Run a river flooding simulation by inputting the observed information under flow conditions.

Required
Information

Past flood information
  • Observing position
  • Observation information

Setting details

Observing position

It is assumed that there is observation information on “Bishnumati Bridge” in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Observing position

Input the CSV file of observation information of time changes. Please refer to the sample file for the CSV file.

Tips:
Since rivers cannot be precisely expressed using topography alone, accuracy can be improved by specifying the time change of the ‘Surge’ function as the water level.

CASE04

Draft plan

Consideration of flood countermeasures due to river flooding

Functions to use

Flood Flows

We will confirm the risk of inundation due to river flooding and confirm the effectiveness of countermeasures such as setting up an embankment on the left bank.

Required
Information

Past flood information
  • Current flood risk information
  • Flood countermeasure plan

Setting details

Current flood risk information

Use the simulation results of Case3

Tips:
It is also very effective to use the results of replicating past flood damage.
Flood countermeasure plan

5m embankment will be built to prevent flooding on the left bank.
