Project Description


In this project, we take data from various sources and feed them into a flooding model.
We plan to have three steps:
1. Consolidate data pertaining to floods from presently decentralised sources across Tasmania
2. Process the data to automatically generate and update a high-resolution 3D model of Hobart
3. Application: The specificity of the model will help Forecast risk zones; an interactive modelling tool could test mitigation strategies; QR codes display augmented reality simulations when your out and about; text/further information to help people in the flood risk zones; constantly access the latest real-time flood information; future projections; educational tool, instant alerts and more. this idea has lots of potential!

Data Story


Data has been used to understand the historical and the current flood events and the affected areas in Hobart. It provides us with specific data about the velocity, depth and hazards. This helped us to predict future flood events risks which will feed into the interactive 3D model of Hobart. The model will use an algorithm based on the existing data.

Flood Risk: Understanding the impact of climate change on extreme weather events in Hobart

Hobart, Tasmania is prone to extreme weather events, especially flash flooding. How can we better understand the risk of flooding and build a robust model to illustrate the increasing regularity and intensity of flooding? What would the impact of coincident events look like? How can we develop a collaborative flood warning and alert system for Hobart?
