Areas of the city susceptible to flooding due to sea level rise

Abstract

This report presents information and maps related to the preliminary identification study of areas in the city that could be impacted by sea level rise resulting from climate change. Its main purpose is to support the development of thematic studies discussed at the Seminar Rio: Next 100 Years. It was created using cartographic data, combined with the functionalities of a Geographic Information System (GIS), to generate a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) of the city, capable of identifying low-lying areas and providing representations of different scenarios of rising mean sea level.
