Course Description

This course provides comprehensive training on the use of FLOOD, a powerful software tool designed to model and simulate flood events with high accuracy. Participants will learn to apply spatially distributed hydrological and hydraulic models to analyze flood risks and develop mitigation strategies for urban, riverine, and coastal areas. Through practical lessons and real-world applications, the course equips users with the skills to support emergency planning, design resilient infrastructure, and visualize flood impacts using advanced simulation tools.

Goals

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
  • Understand the core functionalities of FLOOD software and its applications in flood risk analysis.
  • Import and manage data for flood modeling, including digital terrain and GIS datasets.
  • Simulate urban, riverine, and coastal flooding scenarios using 1D/2D hydrological and hydraulic models.
  • Analyze flood inundation areas and evaluate mitigation strategies through scenario comparisons.
  • Integrate FLOOD with tools like OpenFlows SewerGEMS for advanced stormwater modeling.
  • Create visualizations and 3D animations of flooding events to support communication with stakeholders.
  • Design and manage new projects from scratch, including workspace setup, grid creation, and simulation configuration.
  • Apply FLOOD for watershed-scale simulations, including rainfall-runoff processes and drainage network modeling.

Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of civil engineering or hydrology is preferred.
  • Familiarity with GIS and spatial data formats is recommended.
  • Prior experience with hydraulic or hydrologic modeling tools is beneficial but not required.
