Flooding-prone areas delineation
Background
The project activities were carried out in two phases:
- delineation of flooding-prone areas for many river reaches selected in the secondary hydrographic network of Tiber River basin (2009-2011);
- analysis of the severe flood event that affected the Paglia river basin on November 2012.
Purpose
- preparation of flood hazard maps for selected river reaches in the Tiber river basin (investigated return periods: 50, 100, 200 and 500 years);
- Reconstruction and analysis of hydro-meteorological data of the event of November 2012 in the Chiani-Paglia river basin: evaluation of hydrological response and estimated discharge in each
hydrometric site of interest and delineation of flooded areas.
