Capitalisation de l'information géohistorique dans le cadre de la Directive Inondation : Principes et développements de la BDHI (Base de Données Historiques sur les Inondations)
Abstract
The Floods Historical Database (called 'BDHI') has been developed following the European Directive on the management of flood risks. In this poster, we present the expert approach adopted as far as capitalizing on geo-historical information is concerned, before describing the spatio-temporal data model, dedicated to the representation of the content of archives. This data model also handles some of the vagueness aspects unavoidably associated with such historical data. A web interface, built with cartographic and temporal graphical components, make it possible for flood experts to upload data and for a general audience to query the BDHI and visualize past flood events spatial footprints and damages.
