This review delves deep into the intricate relationship between urban planning and flood risk management, tracing its historical trajectory evolution of methodologies over time. Traditionally, centers prioritized defensive measures, like dikes levees, with an emphasis on immediate solutions long-term resilience. These practices, though effective in short term, often overlooked broader environmental implications necessity for holistic planning. However, as areas burgeoned climate change introduced new challenges, there has been a marked shift approach. Modern now emphasizes integrated blue-green infrastructure, aiming to harmonize human habitation water cycles. Resilience become cornerstone, ensuring cities can adapt swiftly recover from flooding events. Through meticulous spatial planning, land use regulations, integration green transformed sustainable habitats. Yet, challenges abound, rapid urbanization socio-economic disparities that amplify vulnerabilities. Drawing lessons successful strategies adopted Rotterdam, Singapore, Portland, this underscores imperative innovative thinking, community engagement, adaptability.

Precipitation within specific return periods plays a crucial role in the design of hydraulic infrastructure for water management. Traditional analytical approaches involve collecting annual maximum precipitation data from station followed by application statistical probability distributions and selection best-fit distribution based on goodness-of-fit tests (e.g., Kolmogorov-Smirnov). However, this methodology relies current data, raising concerns about its suitability outdated data. This study aims to compare Probability Density Functions (PDFs) with Random Forest (RF) machine learning algorithm estimating at different periods. Using twenty-six stations located various parts Arequipa department Peru, performance both methods was evaluated using MSE, RMSE, R2 MAE. The results show that RF outperforms PDFs most cases, having more precision metrics mentioned estimates 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 years studied stations.
