DIGITAL TWIN

Floods • Infrastructure • Risk
Explore. Simulate. Understand.

Bring terrain, drainage, rainfall, urban assets and hydraulic results into one visual environment. Build scenarios, inspect flood evolution in 2D/3D, and turn model outputs into clearer decisions.

The urban flood challenge

Flood impact is never just rainfall.

It emerges from the interaction between terrain, drainage capacity, urbanization and infrastructure. A useful model needs to keep those layers connected.

Intense rainfall

Concentrated events can exceed local drainage capacity within minutes.

Limited drainage

Inlets, pipes and outlets may be restricted, blocked or undersized.

Terrain & flow

Topography directs water toward low points, corridors and critical assets.

Urbanization

Impervious surfaces and infrastructure bottlenecks amplify exposure and impact.

From data to decisions

One workflow for layers, scenarios and results.

The interface is designed to keep scenario definition, simulation playback and spatial interpretation in the same context.

1

Data & layers

Terrain, drainage, rainfall, urban occupation and exposed assets.

2

Scenario setup

Rainfall, flood sources, drainage behavior and time-dependent parameters.

3

Simulation

Run the hydraulic calculation and track flood evolution through time.

4

2D/3D visualization

Inspect depth, hazard, infrastructure and spatial relationships.

5

Decision support

Compare scenarios and communicate evidence to technical teams and managers.

Practical applications

Different users, one shared view of the city.

Use the same spatial context to explore operational events, investment priorities and planning alternatives.

Civil defense

Anticipate critical areas and support event response.

Urban planning

Evaluate occupation, drainage and vulnerability together.

Infrastructure

Identify bottlenecks, exposed assets and intervention priorities.

Risk management

Compare scenarios and communicate potential impact.

Operations & monitoring

Follow indicators and probe points throughout an event.

Scenario communication

Make technical results easier to review with non-specialists.

Context matters.Terrain, buildings, drainage and flood behavior are easier to interpret when they remain spatially connected.
Monitoring & impact assessment

Move from a map view to measurable consequences.

Scenario controls keep simulation timing and result playback together, while virtual monitoring points reveal depth, flow and velocity over time.
