The objective of this document is to help practitioners design and carry out a climate change assessment for flood hazard mapping and to highlight work that has been performed by flood mapping practitioners across the country to incorporate climate change into flood hazard studies. Natural Resources Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, and Public Safety Canada continue to work in partnership to increase the resiliency of Canadian communities to floods through mitigation measures such as flood mapping, which is a key tool for understanding flood risk.
Études de cas sur les changements climatiques dans la cartographie des zones inondables Ressources naturelles Canada est heureux d’annoncer qu’une nouvelle version d’Études de cas sur les changements climatiques dans la cartographie des zones inondables de la série de guides d'orientation fédéraux sur la cartographie des zones inondables a été publiée. L’objectif de ce document est d’aider les spécialistes à concevoir et à réaliser une évaluation des changements climatiques pour la cartographie des aléas d’inondation, ainsi que de mettre en valeur les travaux effectués par les professionnels de la cartographie des zones inondables à travers le pays afin d’intégrer les changements climatiques dans les études d’aléas d’inondation. Ressources naturelles Canada, Environnement et Changement climatique Canada et Sécurité publique Canada continuent de travailler en partenariat pour accroître la résilience des collectivités canadiennes aux inondations grâce à des mesures d’atténuation comme la cartographie des zones inondables, qui est un outil clé pour comprendre les risques d’inondation. | 2027 Water | Earth | Innovation Conference Dates: February 2-5, 2027 The conference brings together professionals, industry leaders, municipalities, and stakeholders to explore innovative solutions, emerging trends, and best practices related to water, earth, and environmental stewardship.
