Abstract:DEM-based approaches for assessing flood-prone areas have recently gained extensive attention due to their parsimony and cost-effectiveness. This work aims to test the capability of the Geomorphic Flood Index (GFI) to delineate flood-prone areas and the results performances while downscaling the calibration map. The accuracy was tested by examining the sensitivity to the exponent of the power function linking the flow depth in the river network and the upslope contributing area. Two approaches were selected: t… Show more
