Flood control of the smart city Prague

摘要

After heavy rainfall in the southern part of Germany and Czech country there is a serious risk of flooding of the river Moldau in the city of Prague. Flooding can cause many damage and victims. Prevention measures are building of removable dams and evacuation of people and animals. The raising of the water level can be predicted and a smart city has disaster plans. To train involved first responders in the execution of those plans many training hours are necessary. But to simulate realistic disasters is complicated or even impossible. Serious gaming is an alternative, especially to train involved people in communication, procedures and management. This paper is about the design of a serious game on flood control and a presentation of experiences from similar projects.
