A Visual Aided DSS Prototype Development to Mitigate the Flood Hazards

Flood hazards caused by extreme rain events or unplanned watersheds is a problem and it has become a growing concern under impact of climate change. There is a dire need to develop new paradigm to combat flood hazards and operational decision-making process. Effective decision is a challenge, in a c...
