Flood Study — Citywide Overland Flow — Moggill West Sub-Model

Brisbane City Council's Citywide Creek and Overland Flow Path Mapping Flood Study comprises 27 sub-models covering the entire council area. The Moggill West sub-model contains results data for flood height, depth, and hazard for storm events with 2 to 2000 year Average Recurrence Intervals. This dataset, last updated in 2026, includes reports, metadata, and model results for existing floodplain conditions.

Use Cases

• Model flood hazard (depth x velocity) for specific locations based on the provided storm event scenarios.
• Inform land-use planning and development policy using the technical flood height and depth data.
• Assess overland flow path risks within the Moggill West catchment area using the sub-model results.

Strengths

• Covers 27 individual sub-models for the entire Brisbane City Council area, providing comprehensive spatial coverage.
• Includes results for eight distinct storm event scenarios, from 2 to 2000 year Average Recurrence Intervals.
• Published under a CC-BY-4.0 license, allowing for flexible reuse with attribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale analysis.
• Data freshness should be verified despite the 2026 update date, as flood models can become outdated.
