Flood estimation in complex orographic area for risk mitigation in alpine space
FLORA aims to improve the operational use of tools for defense against floods in areas with  complex terrain such as Alpine valleys I-CH. Provides for the application of new technologies  support for monitoring and early warning systems through a) improving the estimate of  precipitation on the small scale space-time is essential for the evaluation of  full of mountain basins, in terms of forecasting (weather patterns) and observation  (radar), b) testing of innovative tools (such as radar ensemble) for the  Nowcasting of flash floods on small watersheds, hydrological models for food  estimates in real time. Finally, provides for the updating of probabilistic assessments of  course of full-scale NUT2, indispensable tool for assessing the risk of  flooding, and more generally for the correct sizing of hydraulic structures.
