floodX

Datasets of urban pluvial floods rarely include information on overland flow, making the study and modelling of such phenomena particularly challenging. In this project, a unique flood training facility was used to create small-scale but extremely well-monitored urban floods. In addition to conventional measurement devices, alternative measurement concepts such as temperature sensors and video cameras were used as well. The evaluation of video-based estimation of overland flow is one of the main applications of the data.
