Flood Risk Analysis: Quantifying Risk
Summary
To support the future growth of the region, in a flood risk constrained environment, deciding where to grow will be critical. Quantifying flood risk as (probability)x(consequence) allows us to monetize the problem and therefore better weigh the appropriate response. Factors such as risk, value, and impact are considered in order to determine an area of focus and the scale of the response.
