The parameters are: rainfall, wave run-up, urbanization and infrastructure. How to highlight the generating parameters of the coastal flood with the aim of mapping a map with detailed flood risk areas that will serve as a flood risk prevention plan for the Hammam Lif area ? and what census methods and tools to use ?
