As the climate evolves, government policy shifts and regulatory requirements increase, there is more pressure than ever on engineers and flood risk professionals to have a full understanding early in the process of planning and designing of both current and future flood risk to assets, sites and projects.
There’s a growing demand for easier access to climate-conditioned, high-resolution flood data that offer this comprehensive and consistent view of risk. And flood model vendors are responding. Increasingly, third-party data is being integrated into flood models – not as a replacement for publicly available data but as a complement to it.
Fathom is proud to have worked with Jacobs to integrate our award-winning global flood maps into Flood Modeller. In this post, I outline how seamless access to our climate-adjusted data, working in tandem with other datasets, will help save users’ time and make their lives easier.
