Abstract
In the metropolitan area of Queretaro (ZMQ) recurrent and dangerous floods are formed, to mitigate them, focused hydraulic infrastructure works have been built that do not always take into account the water dynamics of the territory. Therefore, in the present work, structural strategies were designed in the Santa Rosa Jauregui micro-watershed to contribute to flood mitigation in the urban periphery of the ZMQ. The methods include a multi-criteria analysis with geographic information systems to determine priority sites and then structural strategies were designed with the water dynamics of the micro-watershed. The results present four priority sites distributed between the middle functional zone and the low functional zone of the micro-watershed, and four structural strategies were designed to mitigate floods. This concludes with a work that will allow the population and authorities to have information and options for decision making in flood mitigation.
