Denpasar (Indonesia) - Flood Hazard Map (ESA EO4SD-Urban)

For the Denpasar area short-term flooding close to rivers and waterways in the rainy season (November – March) is typical.The present Geodatabase includes two shp-files for rough estimation of potential flooding zones: a. Denpasar_Flood_Hazard_Rivers Waterways are taken from OSM Layer and complemented by hydrologic modelling of potential catchment areas and flow routes based on SRTM and visual interpretation of VHR data. After classification in two classes based on Stream Order the lines were buffered with 50 m and 100 m respectively to roughly estimate potential flooding zones. b. Denpasar_Flood_Reports_buff200 Point data of reported and localized urban floods (2008 – 2017) are buffered with 200 m to roughly estimate potential flooding hot-spots.
