Digital elevation model
The overall project involves the development of a digital elevation model with LIDAR, the surveying of cross sections, creating hydrologic, hydraulic and inundation models, as well as the assessment of mitigation measures.

The study area is almost 18.000 km2, including the capital Bucharest. Furthermore a hydraulic model will be developed for 3.500 km of rivers.
