Pluvial Flooding in Compact Neighbourhoods: digital analysis for climate-adaptive buildings and urban spaces

This work addresses the problem of pluvial flooding in compact city neighbourhoods and allows identifying and processing through maps and visual scenarios the urban spaces and buildings most exposed to hydraulic risk. The scenarios can assist decision-makers and planners in developing priority strategies and defining solutions to facilitate adaptation to climate change, introducing sustainable urban drainage systems already implemented in many European cities, cited as examples of good practice. The proposed workflow is based on the Grasshopper software which has the potential to include and analyze various environmental phenomena. Therefore, it includes different aspects of mitigation and adaptation that characterize urban sustainability (energy, well-being, supply of goods - for example, food, etc.).
