[en] Worldwide, flood losses are particularly severe in urban environments. To support urban flood risk management, accurate risk modelling tools are needed; but such tools remain limited by a lack of reliable field validation data. We will focus on the issue of scaling, particularly for lab experiments representing urban flooding at the district level.
