One
of the RiverLinks project final goals is to promote the exchange of information
between European cities that developed in different geographical contexts.
For this reason, each Partner has carried out a research on European cities
that are interested in solving problems of the river-city relationship
in the urban scope.
The contribution from Dresden is based on the study of cases concerned
with Cologne, Prague and Regensburg:

"The
Cologne Flood Protection Plan is of overriding importance for planning
in the city. It includes the principles, objectives and flood controls
as well as the necessary resources for all fields of action combined.
It presents valuable arguments for preventive flood protection and
measures of regional policy and conservation.
It is not possible to protect Cologne without structural measures
because of the historic growth of the city. The administration decided
to use ecologically-friendly mobile flood protection systems to
resolve this problem, for example the Aqua Barrier. These elements
are constructed when the water rises and when the water level sinks
they could be dismantled. So the "City-view" as well as
the river area are only affected during floods ."

"DHI
Hydroinform a.s. developed two simulation models for purposes of
flood management in order to generate maps of flooded areas, with
the maximum water level during one of the largest documented flood
events in Prague (1890), which was close to HQ100 by its peak discharge
(design flood for Prague). Mathematical modelling tools were used
to obtain information about potential flood areas and the depths
of water in these areas. Besides, much of the important information
for land-use development, flood defence improvements and also information
for planning and the future management of potential flood areas
were obtained by mathematical simulation."

"The
analyses for the Bavarian Action Program 2020 showed that the activation
of retention areas with 30 Mio. m3 in the basin area of the Danube
river would have very little effect on the flood risk situation
in Regensburg (at best a 10-20 cm lower water level). So the flood
control methods in Regensburg are based on technical and structural
protection measures and better flood prevention.
Flood protection planning in Regensburg by public and municipal
authorities has a long tradition."
