// Floodplain & resilience

Find the failures that haven't happened yet.

Floodplain administration and resilience planning both ask the same thing of a model: where does the water go, how deep, and who's in the way. StormwaterIQ is built to produce depth grids and structure-level exposure — and to re-run them against mid-century rainfall.

01 — The gap

Yesterday's rainfall regime is the wrong baseline.

Exposure mapping built on a single historic storm tells you where the water went, not where it's going. Resilience planning needs the same watershed evaluated against the storms it will see — and the answer mapped to the structures that flood first, not just a polygon.

02 — What you get

The whole job, in one place.

One model answers the questions this work actually asks — with the methodology shown on every number, so the output survives review.

01

Depth-grid inundation

Inundation surfaces with depth resolved across the floodplain — built to suit administration and insurance review, not just a boundary.

02

Structure-level exposure

Exposure attributed to individual structures, so the conversation is about who floods — and how deep — not an outline.

03

Climate scenario planning

Re-run the same terrain against mid-century rainfall regimes to surface failures the historic record never showed.

04

Terrain-true delineation

Contributing areas and flow paths derived from high-resolution elevation, not approximated by hand.

05

Scenario comparison

Hold the infrastructure constant and vary the storm — or vary the infrastructure — to test what actually moves exposure.

06

Shareable, sourced outputs

Maps and exhibits export with the methodology and data-source versions attached, ready for public and regulatory review.

2050 horizon

Mid-century rainfall regimes evaluated against existing infrastructure.

Exposure resolved to individual structures, not just a boundary.
