ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Bibliography of Best Practices and References for Flood Mitigation has been developed
under the leadership of the Flood Mapping Committee, a partnership between Public Safety
Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, National
Research Council of Canada, Defence Research and Development Canada, Infrastructure
Canada, Department of National Defence, and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern
Affairs Canada. A Technical Working Group on Flood Mapping formed in 2015 and comprised
of key stakeholders from federal and provincial jurisdictions, as well as the private sector and
academia, has also contributed valuable input to the development of the Federal Flood Mapping
Guidelines Series documents. Provincial and territorial government representatives also
provided essential feedback for this publication.

CONTEXT
A community achieves an elevated level of resilience when its risks are proactively managed, it
is adequately prepared for known and potential disaster events and it demonstrates an ability to
recover after such events have taken place. In order to become resilient, a community’s
mitigation planners must first understand risks and ensure their capacity to manage those risks.

Floods are the most commonly occurring natural hazard in Canada and account for the largest
portion of disaster recovery costs on an annual basis. Mitigating flood risks is therefore key to
increasing the resilience of affected communities. By proactively investing in flood mitigation
activities, a community secures practical investments for its future growth and prosperity,
reducing the risk of significant disaster recovery costs, productivity losses, economic losses,
destruction of non-monetary cultural assets, environmental damage, injuries and deaths.

Flooding is the temporary inundation by water of normally dry land, and it can occur in coastal
and lake areas, along rivers, from stream blockages including ice jams, from failure of
engineering works including dams, from extreme rainfall, rapid snow/ice melt or poor drainage
characteristics, and other sources. Flood mapping that accurately delineates flood hazards,
including those impacted by future conditions due to anticipated development or projected
changes in climate, serves as the precondition for such mitigation activities and is therefore the
first step to increasing community resilience with regard to flooding. Establishing a national
approach to flood mapping will facilitate a common national best practice and increase the
sharing and use of flood hazard information, thereby improving the foundation from which
further mitigation efforts can be initiated.

FLOOD MAPPING FRAMEWORK
The Flood Mapping Framework consists of all the components of the flood mitigation process,
from flood hazard identification to the implementation of flood mitigation efforts. The following
flow chart illustrates the relationship between these different components and links each of them
to the relevant Federal Flood Mapping Guidelines Series document:

The following documents are intended to inform any individual or organization involved with
flood management in Canada:
1. Federal Flood Mapping Framework
2. Flood Hazard Identification and Priority Setting
3. Federal Hydrologic and Hydraulic Procedures for Flood Hazard Delineation
4. Federal Airborne LiDAR Data Acquisition Guideline

GUIDELINE SUMMARIES

1. Federal Flood Mapping Framework
This document provides background and context on flood mapping in Canada, describes a
vision and principles for flood guidance, and introduces the Federal Flood Mapping Guidelines
Series. It provides a summary of each of the documents in the Series and explains how each
document fits into the overall framework, including its place in the flood mapping cycle.

2. Flood Hazard Identification and Priority Setting
This document has yet to be developed. It will outline methods for determining where to conduct
flood mapping and how to prioritize flood mapping projects.

3. Federal Hydrologic and Hydraulic Procedures for Flood Hazard Delineation
This document provides technical guidance on hydraulic and hydrologic procedures for
preparing flood hazard maps in a Canadian jurisdiction, including standard of care, different
types of flooding, guidelines for hydraulic and hydrologic analyses, and incorporation of non-
stationary processes including climate change.

4. Federal Airborne LiDAR Data Acquisition Guideline
This document is to be used as a resource for the acquisition of base elevation data from
airborne LiDAR data undertaken across Canada. This guideline aims to provide advice to
federal, provincial and territorial departments, as well as individuals and organizations in
Canada that need to understand and plan for airborne LiDAR data acquisition.

Bibliography of Best Practices and References for Flood Mitigation Version 2.0

5. Case Studies on Climate Change in Floodplain Mapping
This collection of documents describes projects from across Canada where climate change has
been incorporated into the floodplain mapping process. It will provide examples for practitioners
to draw on and learn from others’ experiences and will complement the climate change-related
information and resources included in the “Federal Hydrologic and Hydraulic Procedures for
Flood Hazard Delineation” document.

6. Federal Geomatics Guidelines for Flood Mapping
This document covers the Flood Mapping and Dissemination components of the Flood Mapping
Framework. It contains information on the different types of flood maps and outlines methods for
acquiring, managing and disseminating these maps and associated geospatial data.

7. Flood Risk Assessment
This document is currently under development and will provide technical guidance on
conducting flood risk assessments in Canada.

8. Risk-based Land-use Guide: Safe use of land based on hazard risk assessment
This document provides guidance to communities in using risk-based methodologies for the
purpose of land-use planning.

9. Bibliography of Best Practices and References Related to Flood Mitigation
This document contains lists of Canadian and international references and case studies
pertaining to hydrology and hydraulics, climate change, risk assessment and flood mapping.
The purpose of this document is to provide a consolidated list of reference materials intended as
further resources for practitioners involved in flood mapping.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

During the course of the development of the Federal Flood Mapping Guidelines Series
documents, a number of reference materials and case studies pertaining to flood mapping were
compiled. The purpose of this report is to provide a consolidated list of these as a reference for
further investigation.
The contents of this document is a list of reference materials intended as further resources for
practitioners involved in flood mapping. These are divided into Canadian and international sub-
sections and include resources pertaining to all aspects of the flood mapping life cycle.
Like other documents in the Guidelines Series, this document is intended to be evergreen and
to be updated as further developments take place.

2.0 REFERENCE MATERIALS

The following are reference materials compiled during the process of developing the Federal
Flood Mapping Guidelines Series documents. They have been divided into Canadian and
International sub-sections and are intended to be further consulted by practitioners who have
additional interest in topics related to flood mitigation.
