Abstract

<strong class="journal-contentHeaderColor">Abstract.</strong> Floods are among the most common natural disasters responsible for severe damages and human losses. Combining numerical modelling with user-friendly tools for geographically referenced data has been adopted to increase preparedness and reduce vulnerabilities. This paper describes the numerical dataset of hydrometric variables that characterize a flood event occurred in February 2016 in the Portuguese &Aacute;gueda river, shortly defined as Agueda.2016Flood. The dataset was numerically produced and managed through the RiverCure Portal, a collaborative web platform connected to a validated shallow-water model featuring modelled dynamic bed geometries and sediment transport. The dataset Agueda.2016Flood can be used as a starting point to design other experiments and tools, and to learn and apply the proposed approach by directly using the RiverCure Portal. This dataset includes modelled hydrodynamic data (output data) and the topographic, geometrical, land-use and hydrologic data (input data) necessary to carry out the numerical simulation of the flood event.
