MIKE FLOOD is a comprehensive modelling package covering all the major aspects of flood modelling. MIKE FLOOD integrates flood plains, streets, rivers and sewer/storm water systems into one package. Using this integrated approach enables the best engineering and numerical practices to be used where appropriate.
MIKE FLOOD integrates three of the most widely used hydrodynamic models namely MIKE 21, MIKE 11 and MIKE URBAN into one package. The philosophy being that the appropriate spatial resolution is applied where needed e.g. pipes and narrow rivers are modelled using one-dimensional solvers whereas the overland flow is modelled using two spatial dimensions.
MIKE FLOOD offers the following advantages as compared to traditional flood modelling techniques:
- Coupled 1D/2D
- Integration of hydraulic structures in 2D grids
- Effective, stable and locally/globally mass conserving flooding/drying routine
- Applied for riverine, urban and coastal flood mapping
- Accurate and physically based simulation of flow splits
- Extensive user support and documentation.
