How to Create a Flood Simulation in ArcGIS Pro

ArcGIS Pro 3.3 introduced an exciting new tool to help you model and visualize water flow and accumulation in your 3D scenes. This GeoSnap will walk you through the basic steps on how to create flood simulation scenarios using ArcGIS Pro’s out-of-the-box tools. Note: this functionality is only available with an Advanced license. Learn more about the details in building flood simulations in the ArcGIS Pro documentation: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/simulation/simulation-in-arcgis-pro.htm 0:00 – Intro  0:13 – Define the simulation area of interest 0:48 – Create a rainfall scenario for the simulation 1:24 – Run the simulation to model water depth and flow 1:45 – Add a barrier to mitigate flooding and re-run the simulation 2:18 – Compare the simulations without and with the barrier 2:34 – Export the simulation as TIF images for further analysis ► Presented by Mark Ho: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markhogis/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About ArcGIS Pro ► Product Page https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-pro/overview ► Blogs https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/arcgis-pro/ ► Esri Community https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro/ct-p/arcgis-pro About GeoSnaps | Videos by Esri Canada  ► A collection of bite-sized technical videos about all things in the ArcGIS universe.   ► Have a suggestion for a GeoSnap?  Email us at geosnaps@esri.ca  ► Be sure to subscribe to our channel and hit the notification bell to stay up to date with the latest tutorials and technical inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/user/esricanadatv  Want more from Esri Canada?  ► Sign up for our email and select ‘Getting Technical’ under Esri Canada Blog Digests to receive the latest in your inbox: https://pages.esri.ca/Esri-Canada-Preference-Centre.html
