HOW OPEN DATA CAN MITIGATE THE FLOODS OF THE FUTURE. (cover story)Longbottom, Clive
There is no panacea for flood events, but there a range of things we can either do better or start doing to mitigate or adapt to them. The UK floods caused by Storm Desmond in the first week of December 2015 were devastating on both sides of the Pennines. Arecord-breaking341mm of rain...
In the past Onyando has used garbage to block water from entering his home. After attending KDI’s training, he says he’s open to using small structural modification techniques such as widening rain channels and using sandbags to divert water in order to cope with floods. “This process is...

Even fewer have taken steps to mitigate the risks. Given the continued housing and commercial development in harm’s way, banks need to get more rigorous about addressing climate-related physical risks. Perfect storms Since the middle of the last century, climate-related perils have been growing ...
The good news is that AI can optimise how we use water for food production. It will enable us to plan a course of action to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Increasingly accurate modelling is helping us to identify previously overlooked factors such as the effect ofcloud phase. It give...
