The future of flood prediction is here
Flood prediction is complex—from flash floods to swelling rivers and coastal surges, accurate prediction necessitates comprehensive, current data. Traditional manual processes take too long and rely on bounded, historical data inputs. Flood Predictor overcomes these limitations by combining fundamental engineering principles with up-to-date data including broad future forecasting and detailed changes like land use and vegetation.
Protecting our coasts
Extreme weather events and sea level rise have increased the frequency and severity of flooding in coastal communities. Getting ahead of this is imperative. And the key to that is technology. Through an innovative partnership between Stantec, AltaML, and Microsoft, we’re excited to announce the development of our coastal flood prediction model. This model will provide coastal communities with reliable and timely coastal flood hazard predictions—information that is essential for planning, mitigation, and emergency response.

Regional flood analysis depends on efficiency, and traditional methods have not historically delivered this. Complicated by hydrology and hydraulic complexity, these models take hundreds, even thousands, of hours to produce—and for a hefty price tag. In many regions, such as along the Mississippi River in Tennessee, Flood Predictor is changing the game. Read MoreMaking implementation easy
When we launch a new product, we think about more than getting that product into the hands of people who need it. We're focused on making sure that product is doing all the things you want it to do. This means working with you to understand your business needs and how this product will fit into your existing operations. When you invest in Flood Predictor, our Professional Services team works hand in hand with you to implement it, integrate it into your current system, and customize it as needed to fit your business models and goals.

As planetary temperatures rise, flood events become more frequent and more severe—to devastating effect. Until we can slow and alter climate change factors and behaviors, we must act now to enhance our flood prediction practices. Our whitepaper proposes baseline criteria for a new and enhanced flood prediction method that shifts from manual to digital flood prediction.
