Abstract. Among the natural hazards, flash flooding is leading cause of weather-related deaths. Flood risk management (FRM) in this context requires a comprehensive assessment social component. In regard, integrated vulnerability (ISV) can incorporate spatial distribution and contribution combined effect exposure, sensitivity resilience to total vulnerability, although these components are often disregarded. ISV defined by demographic socio-economic characteristics that condition...

The use of high resolution ground-based light detection and ranging (LiDAR) datasets provides spatial density vertical precision for obtaining highly accurate Digital Surface Models (DSMs). As a result, the reliability flood damage analysis has improved significantly, owing to increased accuracy hydrodynamic models. In addition, considerable error reduction been achieved in estimation first floor elevation, which is critical parameter determining structural content damages buildings....

Abstract Flash floods are unexpected events, which evolve rapidly and affect relatively small areas. The short time available for minimising risks requires preparedness active response. In this context of risk management, the flood perception local population is first step towards achieving resilience people communities. Although has intrinsic spatial variability, few previous studies take into account. This paper explores variability flash in village Navaluenga Central Spain, using...

Digital surface models (DSMs) are crucial in providing accurate urban flood hazard maps. The ubiquitous availability of LiDAR data (where accessible) makes constructing geometrically sound DSMs feasible. However, little attention has been paid to developing approaches for producing consistent DSMs. Herein is described an application-driven procedure creating a robust DSM (DSM1). Two further were created, one portraying streets using breaklines as ancillary information (DSM2) and the other...

Abstract. Flash floods are considered to be one of the natural hazards with greatest capacity generate risk. Therefore, a change in traditional flood risk management (FRM) is necessary towards an integrated approach, which requires comprehensive assessment social component. In this regard, vulnerability (ISV) gives us spatial distribution, contribution and combined effect exposure, sensitivity resilience total vulnerability, although these components often disregarded. ISV characterized by...

Resilience analysis is critical in developing flood risk reduction strategies the context of global change, which necessitates its integration with other policy objectives, such as sustainable development and conservation or restoration river ecosystems, aspirations having been pursued over last two decades by agreements Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, European Green Deal, 2030 Agenda Sustainable Development. The most common method assessing resilience index-based....
