Thoughts on Flood Protection for the Settlement on a Small Island
Author:
Abstract: This paper presents data from digital elevation models of the area around the settlement of the Greek island of Pserimos, based on which some thoughts are documented for the flood protection of the settlement. This paper aims to provide the impetus, data, and methodology for a thorough study. For this purpose, a digital elevation model of the area has been created with an accuracy of approximately two meters. Two watersheds are examined, one North of the settlement and one South/East. Our suggestions concern the creation of a retaining dam North of the settlement and the creation of small dams south and East of the settlement.
