Abstract

A grid-based numerical model is developed by improving the diffusion hydrodynamic model that can accurately reflect LiDAR data and enable an efficient hydraulic analysis by linking river and drainage networks. In order to verify 2D model, recent flood events, which occurred in the Gimcheon area during Typhoon Rusa on 2002 is considered. For the estimations of flood disaster vulnerability index, population density, household income, access to evacuation route/time, and shelter information are included. The flood hazard map considering flood depth, velocity, flood arrival time is combined with the flood vulnerability information to derive a flood risk map. The flood risk map presented in this study can provide useful information for the preparation of evacuation plan through accurate flood hazard results and disaster vulnerability index.
