Abstract: Current flood mitigation approaches consist of responding aptly to flooding events with either upstream or downstream measures. Upstream factors such as precipitation and other hydrological factors are the major triggers of flooding events within our environments. In order to address this issue, a conceptual framework will be introduced in this paper to identify various spatio-temporal data required for an enhanced flooding analysis as well as the pertinent processes involved which are needed........
