Indianapolis precipitation flooding simulation

How can real-time flood simulation data be visually integrated with maps to enhance public understanding of weather events?

Background

We simulated precipitation in Indianapolis over a period of two hours.

What did we learn?

In this project, we experimented with placing images on top of a map and we learned how they behave. To achieve this, we used MapBoxGL and exported (QGIS) high resolution PNG layers onto the exact coordinates. All data is kindly provided by 3Di Water Management. 3Di provides state-of-the-art hydrodynamic simulation software for pluvial, fluvial and coastal floods.

Ambitions

Simulations of weather events in real time can offer a more informed engagement with meteorological activities and enhance people’s everyday life.
