An important step forward in the knowledge of flood risk and its mitigation: the assessment of flood damagee: la valutazione del danno da alluvione
The Po River District Basin Authority and 8 other Italian research centers have signed an agreement to update the maps of the expected damage in case of flooding in the district’s territory. A better assessment of the damages will allow a more effective risk management, with the possibility of planning the interventions of mitigation based on cost-benefit analysis and to support the decisions during the emergency towards the protection of the most fragile elements. The first results will be communicated soon.
