Flood Hazard and Flood Risk maps provided on this website are generated using the CaMa-Flood model (Mohanty, M.P., and S.P. Simonovic (2022) “A comprehensive approach for floodplain mapping through identification of hazard using publicly available data sets over Canada,” Water, 14, 2280, open access https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4441/14/14/2280/pdf). These maps are intended for use at national, provincial, or regional scales and can serve as a guide for identifying areas that require further investigation. Flood Hazard maps for current and future (climate change-affected) conditions, as well as Flood Risk maps, are available at a 1 km resolution. Due to uncertainties in the modeling process and variability in results, these maps serve as a starting point for identifying opportunities to enhance solutions through further exploration.
This new web-based platform offers an advanced tool for assessing flood risk at specific locations, using previously conducted flood hazard mapping. Users can input their addresses to receive a detailed flood risk assessment based on current and projected future climate conditions.
Summary:
The flood risk assessment tool is intended to empower users with the information needed to make informed decisions about flood preparedness and mitigation. However, all outputs should be considered as part of a broader decision-making process involving local expertise and data. We encourage you to explore this tool for actionable insights into flood risk management at your location.
