Simulation and Prediction of Urban Land Use Change Considering Multiple Classes and Transitions by Means of Random Change Allocation Algorithms

Romulo Marques-Carvalho et al.

Summary: This study uses a cellular automata model associated with the Markov chain to simulate and predict urban land use change in a pilot city in the Sao Paulo Metropolitan Region of Brazil. The model is parameterized using data from orbital and airborne remotely sensed images and the Bayesian weights of evidence method. Several layers related to infrastructure and biophysical aspects are used as evidence in the simulation process. The simulations are validated using a multiresolution goodness-of-fit metric relying on fuzzy logic, and the results show good performance of the Bayesian inference method in simulating urban land use change involving multiple classes and transitions.

Improving the performance of city-scale hydrodynamic flood modelling through a GIS-based DEM correction method

Yun Xing et al.

Summary: Flood modelling is valuable for flood risk assessment and management, but its accuracy relies on high-quality input data. This study proposes a GIS-based correction method to improve the accuracy of flood simulation results by modifying high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs), specifically by adding buildings and removing unrealistic representations of bridges. The method is applied to large-scale urban flood modelling in Fuzhou City, China, and the results show that accurately representing artificial structures improves the flood simulation outcomes significantly.

Flood risk map from hydrological and mobility data: A case study in Sao Paulo (Brazil)

Livia Rodrigues Tomas et al.

Summary: The article proposes a method for creating urban flood risk maps using hydrological and mobility data, with the megacity of Sao Paulo, Brazil, as a case study. By estimating flood susceptibility through the Height Above the Nearest Drainage algorithm and assessing potential impact through exposure and vulnerability components, the cells are classified into moderate, high, and very high categories. The flood susceptibility component, reflecting the presence of watercourses, plays a significant role in determining the location of cells classified as very high risk.

The Value of Urban Flood Modeling

B. R. Rosenzweig et al.

Summary: Urban flood models play a critical role in flood risk assessment and resilience planning, but current models are limited in representing integrated flooding processes in urban areas. Further research and collaboration support are needed to address these limitations and enhance the effectiveness of flood models.

The Importance of Digital Elevation Model Selection in Flood Simulation and a Proposed Method to Reduce DEM Errors: A Case Study in Shanghai

Kepeng Xu et al.

Summary: Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) are crucial for hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, but differences in vertical accuracy between various DEM datasets can lead to biases in flood mapping. This study found that using a single DEM dataset may not be adequate for accurate flood mapping, and improving the accuracy of DEMs through correction methods can enhance the performance of flood simulations. A freely available, accurate, high-resolution DEM is needed to support robust flood mapping, and stakeholders should be mindful of the uncertainty caused by DEM quality.
