This volume describes the latest tools and technologies for modeling, mapping, and predicting large-scale flood risk. It also presents readers with a range of remote sensing data sets successfully used for predicting and mapping floods at different scales. These resources can enable policymakers, public planners, and developers to plan for, and respond to, flooding with greater accuracy and effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes the latest large-scale modeling approaches, including hydrological models, 2-D flood inundation models, and global flood forecasting models\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShowcases new tools and technologies such as Aqueduct, a new web-based tool used for global assessment and projection of future flood risk under climate change scenarios\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFeatures case studies describing best-practice uses of modeling techniques, tools, and technologies \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGlobal Flood Hazard\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable resource for researchers, consultants, practitioners, and policy makers dealing with flood risk, flood disaster response, flood management, and flood mitigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGuy J-P.
