Project description

When it was launched in 2002 to draw up a methodology for flood modeling was in the field of geographic data much less possible. To divide the land was then just using satellite-based classified data (Corine Land Cover and Land Use Small File). However, this method has some shortcomings when one wants detailed modeling of housing damage. Therefore developed a new method that uses detailed vector data.
