How does detailed hydraulic modeling work?

In partnership w @UNOSAT the process follows rigorous steps:

-nationwide flood susceptibility mapping
- identification of priority areas
- shelter / settlement analysis (eg. building footprints)
- detailed hydraulic modeling

On top of this, REACH teams in Syria continuously updates multi-sectoral data on #needs & #vulnerabilities, and wider #humanitarian conditions, of communities living in the crisis-affected areas in Northern part of #Syria

This is the #Emergency Needs Tracking System
