Projects

  • FLOODsite: largest ever EU-Integrated Project on flood risk management. Input of Deltares focused on methods for 'flood risk assessment and management' as well as dissemination of knowledge to professionals.
  • A Dutch perspective on coastal Louisiana flood risk reduction and landscape stabilization: (New Orleans).
  • Mekong Flood Management and Mitigation programme, component 2: Structural measures and flood proofing: basin wide assessment of flood damage risks, analysis of type and character of floods in all sub basins, assessment of flood hazards, vulnerability and flood risks.
  • Water safety 21st Century: development of new standards for protection against flood risks in The Netherlands, based on cost-benefit analysis and assessment of casualty risks.
  • Jakarta Flood Mangement: analysis of current and future vulnerability to flooding, development of both structural and non-structural measures to alleviate flooding problems.
  • Second Red River Basin Sector Project, Vietnam: analysis of flooding issues in the upper, middle and lower Red River Basin; study of potential flood risk management and/or mitigation measures, flood diversion options, and the potential for flood early warning; specific flood risk assessment in the Red River Delta (Bac Hung Hai polder).
  • Aceh and Nias Sea Defence, Flood Protection, Refuges and Early Warning Project. Ontwikkeling van een tsunami model plus schadeberekeningen ten behoove van de Indonesische overheid
  • Andhra Pradesh Cyclone Hazard Mitigation Project (India): ontwikkeling van een 'storm surge' model voor tropische stormen ten behoeve van een real time early warning system alsmede voor planningsdoeleinden.
  • Room for the river: analyse van groot aantal en breed palet aan maatregelen om een hogere maatgevende rivierafvoer op te vangen in het rivierengebied
  • Floris: probabilistic approach for estimatation of the current probabilities and consequences of dike rings in the Netherlands,
  • NL Later and Water: development of flood risk (probability, damage and casualties) for various scenarios of spatal and economic development.
  • Toolkit for evaluation of water defences: development of new hydraulic boundary conditions and testing methods for evaluation of the primary water defences in the Netherlands.
  • PROmO: risk perception and risk communication in dealing with flood risks, impact on citizens of a transition to a risk approach in water safety policy
  • Compartimentation study: perspectives of compartimentation of dike rings as a means to reduce the impacts of floods
  • Delft Cluster working package on flood risk: joint Dutch research programme on hydrological modelling, statistical techniques for flood forecasting, strength of dikes and system behaviour of river defences.

    • Paleogeografie en Veiligheid tegen Overstromen: Deltares-UU-TNO project dat frequentie-magnitude statistiek voor zeldzaam grote afvoeren van de Rijn (> 1/50/jr; > 10,000 m3/s) wil uitbreiden met gegevens uit het sedimentaire archief van onze delta, zoals gevormd in de laatste 5000 jaar.
