Accounting for residual uncertainty in flood modelling
Wednesday 4th December | 12 PM GMT
Understanding residual uncertainty within modelling studies is integral to delivering robust flood risk management schemes. Working with Jacobs, the Environment Agency has released supplementary guidance to support the application of residual uncertainty across appraisal projects.
In this webinar, Louise Glover, Evidence & Risk Advisor at the Environment Agency and Phil Crawford, Senior FRM Specialist at Jacobs will cover the importance of residual uncertainty, introduce the new guidance documents and through discussion of a practical example highlight how Flood Modeller can be used to increase efficiencies.
