Brighton Creek Flood Study Data And Reports

Brisbane City Council provides a superseded flood study dataset for Brighton Creek, containing reports, data, and metadata for existing and ultimate floodplain scenarios. The dataset includes two detailed technical reports (Volume 1 and Volume 2) and metadata covering all resources used in the flood modelling. It was published in July 2014 and superseded in November 2023.

Use Cases

• Analyze floodplain condition scenarios described in the flood study reports for risk assessment.
• Extract metadata on flood modelling resources to understand data lineage and inputs.
• Review the catchment area and creek centreline details from the linked reports for hydrological modeling.

Strengths

• Includes two comprehensive technical reports (Volume 1 and Volume 2) detailing the study methodology.
• Metadata covers all resources used in the flood modelling, providing context for the data.

Limitations

• Dataset is explicitly marked as superseded (Nov 2023), indicating the information is not the latest available.
• Core data (e.g., model outputs, shapefiles) are not directly provided as tabular columns, requiring extraction from reports.
