Overview

Description

The project will propose an improved strategy for compound flood impact forecasts over Europe, combining convective hazards and pluvial floods and river floods. The project aims, inter alia, to extend the convective hazards and pluvial flood forecasts over Europe; increase the adaptability of the flood impact forecasts to the needs of the end users; integrate the flood impact forecasts to the EWS platforms of the end users; demonstrate the added value of seamless flood impact forecasts through a robust evaluation (at European scale, and in two pilot sites (Spain-Portugal and Finland+), where the early warning systems of the operational end users will be improved, integrating the developed EDERA flood impact forecasts); to integrate the developments within the European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) system, which should ensure the availability of the impact forecasts beyond the duration of the project; etc.
