Description
Summary:Vandenberghe et al describe the procedures and data acquisition for flood risk mapping as a first step into an effective flood risk management in Reni. This work is part of a Flemish funded project named "Building capacities for effective flood risk management in the Ukrainian part of the Danube Delta." available. As a result, within this project recommendations for data collection and the use of the existing earth observation, systems are formulated to achieve a more effective risk assessment. It is the aim to create a flood risk map of the region and to present a set of recommendations to be able to set up in the near future an online flood forecasting system. Initial flood risk mapping results are also used to introduce the management concept to stakeholders.
