Dataset description

L_ZI_SARSONNE_2001_ALEAS_S_019 The study determined the flooding areas of the Sarsonne at Ussel by hydrogeomorphological approach on the upstream and downstream areas of the urbanised part (maximum right-of-way only). The hydrogeomorphological approach is a naturalistic approach based on reading the morphology of the alluvial plain. It is supplemented here by extrapolation of the water line from a flood known to establish the reference flood water line. This reading of the morphology of the alluvial plain has been clarified on the urbanised area, thanks in particular to topographical works, allowing the definition of heights and flow rates in the crossing of the urbanised area. The flooding zone was determined by calculating the water line of a centennial flood (reference) determined by extrapolation of the 1994 flood water line, extrapolation based on topographical knowledge, the difference in flows between the 1994 event and a centennial event. Topographic knowledge has been used to determine water heights (between 0 and 1 m and > 1 m); flow velocities were defined qualitatively from valley morphology primarily. The crossing of these two parameters allowed to map the hazard (strength = H > 2 m or 1 m < H < 2 m and V > 0.5 m/s or 0 m < H < 1 m and V > 1 m/s; mean = 1 m < H < 2 m and V < 0.5 m/s or 0 m < H < 1 m and 0.5 m/s < V < 1 m/s; low hazard 0 m < H < 1 m and V < 0.5 m/s).
