NOAA National Water Model - Flood Risk Impact Mapping

In this module, the learner will learn how to generate the flood risk map through the case study of the 2024 Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. The step-by-step workflow to create impact-based flood forecasting will be provided, in which we will use the National Water Model (NWM) forecasted streamflow input for Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC)-8 level. You will learn to implement the HAND method for FIM along with SVI and OWP-NWM streamflow input to generate flood risk map for quick evacuation planning with low computational demands.
