Visualising Flood Frequency, Flood Volume and Mitigation of Extreme Events
摘要
Two novel visualisation tools on extreme flooding are considered and their appeal discussed. First, an overview of the Wetropolis Flood Demonstrator is given. This is a portable set-up that showcases what a return period of an extreme flood event is: it has been received well by the general public. Second, a novel graphical cost-effectiveness diagnostic aimed at the public and decision-makers is explained: it has already led to increasing stakeholder participation in flood-mitigation planning.
