Layer 4- Recovery
Layer 4 is about how to facilitate a good and fast recovery after a flood event. This includes plans for draining / pumping away flood water and restoring safety and security, plans for reconstruction or rebuilding critical infrastructure, damage compensation/insurance systems, return of evacuated communities and social-psychological support.
Listed below are the tools used in layer 4 by the FRAMES pilots. When available, we provide links to external sites where the tool is explained in more detail.
| Name of tool | Description | Applied in pilot |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways (DAPP) approach | "The Dynamic Adaptive Policy Pathways (DAPP) approach aims to support the development of an adaptive plan that is able to deal with conditions of deep uncertainties. " | All pilots in Denmark, Assens, Vejle and Roskilde, applied an adapted version of this tool. |
| Severe Weather Impacts Monitoring System - SWIMS tool | The Severe Weather Impacts Monitoring System (SWIMS) allows Kent partners to collect data about how the services provided them are affected during severe weather events. This data allows us to understand the impact of these weather events and to plan better for the future. | All pilots in the United Kingdom |
| The Neighbourhood Flood Vulnerability Index(NFVI) | The NFVI gives insights into the social vulnerability of a neighbourhood if a flood should occur. It is a measure of the vulnerability of a community to the negative impacts of flooding. |
