Learning outcomes of the two modules, Advanced GIS for Water Resources Management and Disaster Risk Assessment, Reduction and Mitigation, are practised and evaluated through the PBL exercise.
The objective of the PBL is to develop isohyetal maps for future flood susceptibility assessment for selected river basins using Model Builder Platform provided by ArcMap. Flood susceptibility assessments and isohyetal maps developed for selected climate scenarios can be directly used by engineers and planners in their design aspects and decision-making processes to identify the design rainfall events for studies involving flood risk evaluation and mitigation, environmental impact assessments, stream restoration, and design of hydraulic structures for stormwater management.
