Urban Flood Model Sewerage Coverage for Extreme Precipitation (2019)

A 2019 map layer from the Dutch Ministry of the Interior shows which urban sewerage systems are integrated into a flooding calculation model. This geospatial data is designed to be combined with water depth information for analyzing extreme precipitation events. The dataset is published under a Creative Commons Public Domain Mark license.

Use Cases

• Identify sewerage network coverage in flood models based on the map layer description
• Assess urban flood vulnerability by combining sewerage data with water depth maps as suggested
• Validate or calibrate hydrological simulation inputs for areas with modeled sewer systems

Strengths

• Specific publication year (2019) provides a temporal reference point.
• Explicitly designed for integration with complementary water depth data.
• Published under a permissive public domain license (CC-PDM-1.0).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and data volume are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
