Hydrology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 12(4), P. 78 - 78

Published: March 31, 2025

This article draws on over 40 years of the author’s experience with hydroinformatics tools for water and sustainability challenges, including flooding. It aims to spark discussion urban flood risk resilience rather than provide a literature review or definitive answers. Assessing is complex due spatio-temporal nature rainfall, landscape features (e.g., buildings, roads, bridges underpasses) interaction between aboveground underground drainage systems. Flood simulation methods have evolved analyse mitigation schemes, damage evaluation, mapping green infrastructure impacts. Advances in terrain technologies improved analyses. Despite investments management infrastructure, residual remains, necessitating an understanding recovery return normality post-flood. Both approaches are essential planning management. Future challenges opportunities include both technological governance solutions, artificial intelligence advancements offering potential digital twins better protect communities enhance from disasters.
