In this lab I determined the areas of Metro Vancouver that would be most severely impacted by flooding in the event of a storm surge by mapping out the elevation levels of all of Metro Vancouver using data from Open data Canada, as shown in Figure 1. It was previously determined that areas with both an elevation of less than 5 meters and that were within 1 kilometer of shorelines were considered at risk of flooding in the event of a storm surge; this can be seen in Figure 2. Roadways, particularly highways, expressways, and major roads are a highly important method of transportation, both into and out of Metro Vancouver. As such, Figure 3 analyzes and maps out these major roadways that fall within the flood risk zone (as shown in Figure 2). In Figure 4, all roadways, Vancouver schools, and the proposed new location of St. Paul’s Hospital in False Creek were mapped out. Higher resolution data from the City of Vancouver data base was used for this map, allowing a more detailed analysis of this area. This map indicates the elevation levels of False Creek, a highly populated area with relatively low elevation levels. Overall, I found that there is quite a bit of land that is at risk of flooding in the event of a storm surge, however, through a more detailed analysis of False Creek I found that the large majority of high-density buildings were not located within the risk zone.
