Abstract:In the early years of this project, our team was able to develop a good understanding of how floods impact travel times and roads in Iowa. The analysis allows us to understand what areas will be more or less accessible after floods. We used this information during these phases of the grant to understand what roads would be good candidates for mitigation, given both their propensity to flood as well as the access they provide for citizens to health care facilities during a flood. We have also worked on an interactive web platform for users to evaluate flood scenarios and their impact on transportation.
