Description

As part of a provincial flood damage assessment study, the City of Calgary was identified as a high priority centre and selected as the pilot municipality for the updating of flood damage curves and development of a Rapid Flood Damage Assessment Model. The primary purpose of this study is to estimate flood damages for a range of flood events such that average annual damages can be computed and employed in a subsequent benefit/cost analysis of potential flood mitigation alternatives.
