National feasibility study for flood hazard modelling and mapping at a regional scale : environmental scan report / KGS Group, DHI.: M104-23/2026E-PDF
"Prepared by KGS Group and DHI for Natural Resources Canada in the context of the Flood Hazard Identification and Mapping Program (FHIMP), this environmental scan reviews regional-scale flood hazard modelling and mapping in Canada. It examines approaches to riverine, pluvial, coastal and compound flooding, reviews existing initiatives and selected projects, and synthesizes input from government, academia and industry. The report considers how regional mapping can address gaps between broad global products and detailed local studies, including applications for hazard screening, public awareness and emergency planning. It identifies challenges related to data availability, model calibration, uncertainty and climate change, and discusses techniques such as remote sensing and artificial intelligence. Its findings will inform recommendations for technical guidance on modelling methods, data preparation, expected accuracy and appropriate uses of regional flood hazard maps"--Provided by the publisher.
