Development of a high-resolution two-dimensional urban/rural flood simulation

Numerical modeling of extreme flooding in an urban area in eastern Iowa is presented. Modeling is performed using SRH-2D, an unstructured grid, finite volume model that solves the depth-averaged shallow-water equations. Data from a photogrammetric stereo compilation, contour maps, a hydrographic sur...
