Presentation by Didrik Meijer, Deltares, The Netherlands, at the Delft3D - User Days (Day 1: Hydrodynamics), during Delft Software Days 2016. Tuesday 1 November 2016, Delft.
8. What makes an urban model special?
High level of detail
Different systems:
Sewer system
Drainage system
Surface water
Flash floods
Fluvial, puvial, coastal flooding
13. Adaptation Support Tool
Assist stakeholders (urban planners, drainage departments,
municipalities, landscape designers, project developers, housing
corporations, etc.)
in the process of decision making and designing climate
adaptation measures
to create resilient, attractive, flourishing cities
by providing Adaptation Support Tool and facilitating the design
process
19. Case Leeuwarden
Leeuwarden Centrum
Area (km2) 52 1.1
Grid cell (m2) 4x4 1x1
Number cells million 3,2 1,1
Rainfall event 30 mm in 1 hour 30 mm in 1 hour
Calculation time
(minutes)
60 10
25. Deltares and models
• Vast knowledge about models to advise about water management
• Deltares models
• Other Models
• Build models based different data sources
• Develop and share models
• Continuity in a rapidly changing world
• Robust solutions
• Easy to maintain
27. Future
Urban flooding is becoming increasingly important
Developments:
Data => models
Sewer systems => Delft3D FM
Connection Groundwater drainage system surface water
Fast detailed modeling of urban area with Delft3D FM
