Barry Carter, Nick Brown, Carl Hewison, John Tate, and Frank Tian – Auckland Council, New Zealand
This paper shows the close relationship between predicted flooding from overland flow and actual flooding from the storm affected area and the benefit of mitigation works where they have been already undertaken. The focus of this paper is:
The process of ground-truthing potential overland flow flooding issues
Simple predictive and preventative measures
Validating predicted overland flow flooding with the 3rd July 2012 event
Overland flow flooding from small contributing catchments
Assessing the effectiveness of flood mitigation works.
