🌊 Let's talk about something: We don't need another startup building "the world's most accurate flood model." A thread 🧵

tl;dr 👉 Stop chasing marginal gains in flood depth accuracy and start building the smart, human-centered tools that actually save properties and lives.

Still playing around with making Danish public Bluespot data to make them easier to use and understand for non-professional people and house owners...

🌊 Playing with Danish Bluespot data to communicate potential #FloodRisks more effectively to houseowners and non-professionals... This data is widely used on private and public portals. 3D could improve the understanding of water levels relative to structural elements.

Just cast my vote for SDG Alliance in the @ida.dk 's Representative Council Election! They're bringing crucial focus on Sustainability, Diversity, and Globalisation to IDA's future direction. Here is why you should do as well... 👇 🧵

🌊 UK's Environment Agency Flood Map got an excellent update! I'm genuinely impressed by how user-friendly this tool is. Eg they've added separate layers showing areas with and without flood defences - making protection measures instantly visible! #FloodRisk #ClimateResilience 🧵 1/4

🚨🌊 #FloodRisk management is a marathon, not a sprint you can manage within a budget cycle – A thread 🧵

Today, @klimamonitor.dk published an article of Dan Halldin from Wavin arguing why we need to think much longer term about #ClimateAdaptation in Denmark.

🚨🌊 #FloodRisk labels for houses? A thread 🧵

Danish experts are proposing a new flood risk label for houses, similar to energy labels. This could revolutionize how we understand and prepare for flood risks.

tl;dr 👉 I support this initiative 💯.

Does anybody has experience with plotting @ecmwf.bsky.social's open forecast .grib2 data in R with ggplot2 and terra/stars? It does not recognise any raster data in it...

This composite combines images from July 9, July 21, and August 2, 2024 (before, during, and after event stages). Dark blue represents the river's original course, red shows the landslide area and exposed riverbed, and cyan indicates the water pool formed by the landslide dam. [🧵 2/4]

🚨 On July 30, 2024, a massive landslide occurred at the #ChilcotinRiver in Farwell Canyon, British Columbia, #Canada. The slide formed a debris mound 1,000 meters long and 600 meters wide, completely obstructing the river's flow. #Sentinel-1 radar images reveal the dramatic changes. [🧵 1/4]
