Flood Intelligence: What It Is, Why It Matters and How It Is Generated – Lessons from Lockhart and Urana Shire Floods 2010-2012
Floodplain Management Association National Conference 28-31 May 2013 Tweed Heads NSW FLOOD INTELLIGENCE: WHAT IT IS, WHY IT MATTERS AND HOW IT IS GENERATED – LESSONS FROM LOCKHART AND URANA SHIRE FLOODS 2010-2012 M Morgan1 S Yeo2, M Walsh3 1 NSW State Emergency Service, Wollongong, NSW 2 Independent flood risk management consultant, Sydney, NSW 3 Inland Flood Unit, Office of Environment and Heritage, Sydney, NSW Abstract Flood intelligence seeks to describe flood behaviour and its effects on the community. The NSW State Emergency Service (NSW SES) flood intelligence system includes a flood intelligence database, Local Flood Plans, a reference library and associated spatial data. Reliable intelligence is vital for informed decision-making during flood emergencies to minimise risks to the community. Data collection following flooding is a means both for generating new flood intelligence to improve future emergency response and for informing the floodplain management process. Between 2010 and 2012, many communities in South Western NSW experienced the highest floods in decades, if not on record. This provided an ideal opportunity to collect flood data. A case study from Lockhart and Urana Shires shows the benefits of this exercise both for an improved flood intelligence leading to an improved flood response and for input into Flood Studies and Floodplain Risk Management Studies and Plans. Strengths and weaknesses of the various sources of flood data including community questionnaires are outlined. Introduction Between September 2010 and March 2012, areas in South Western NSW experienced record rainfall, associated with a strong La Niña episode which resulted in extensive and frequent flooding through to May 2012. -
