Jun 1, 2025

June 2025 monthly summary for GEB-model/GEB: Focused on delivering advanced flood risk analytics and critical infrastructure warnings. Implemented object-based flood probability maps with ensemble data loading, probability calculation by defined ranges, and saving probability maps to support granular risk assessments. Extended probability mapping to include critical infrastructure, notably energy substations, and added a strategy for issuing warnings based on these probabilities. Refined household location and attribute assignments to improve risk attribution and downstream reporting. This work was driven by two commits: creating an object-based prob map and implementing the critical infrastructure warning strategy. Repositories: GEB-model/GEB.
