Conditional flooding
This dataset from the Système d'information du territoire genevois (SITG), the land information system of the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland, identifies zones subject to conditional flooding. Flooding occurs when a watercourse overflows its bed, and its hazard level depends on factors such as water height, current strength, and the volume of material carried. Flood zones are delineated in relation to local topography, distinguishing areas where inundation may occur only under certain conditions from those permanently at risk. The data supports local risk assessment, land-use planning, and hazard mapping within the canton of Geneva.timeFlooding is the overflow of a watercourse out of its bed. The more or less dangerous nature of flooding depends on the height of water and the strength of the current reached, as well as the amount of material carried. The determination of flood zones is done in relation to the topography. For some…
