FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT AND ITS USAGE IN NATURAL AND URBAN PLANNING. THE CASE STUDY OF THE PLAIN OF TRIKALA - KALAMBAKA
Abstract
Floods are part of the géomorphologie cycle during the landscape formation. The flooding events may become dangerous when affect the human activities. Hence, a certain methodology to assess the flooding risk for the basin of Trikala - Kalambaka is presented above, and a flood hazard map has been produced. The method used for the definition of locations prone to flooding combines the study of the relief with the mechanical composition of the soil. In this paper, the towns and settlements that are vulnerable to future flooding events. In this way, the contribution of geology to the urban and natural planning is of outmost importance.
