The expert training component of the ARTIFACT project is designed to:

1. Enhance skills and knowledge in flood risk assessment, urban flood proofing, and AI-based modeling

2. Facilitate knowledge transfer between participating institutions (e.g., TU Delft, IHE Delft, and TUHH) and IVI researchers.

 

Training topics and key dates:

  • Strengths and weaknesses of physically-based models for flood simulation in urban contexts (May, 2025)
  • AI-based techniques to improve flood risk assessment (October, 2025)
  • Integrating AI with Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) for urban flood proofing (TBA, 2026)
  • Developing methods for reshaping predicted flood extents using climate data (TBA, 2026)
  • Creating AI tools for flood risk estimation under changing climate conditions (TBA, 2027)
  • Designing user-friendly interfaces for visualizing flood risks and mitigation strategies (TBA, 2027)
