Abstract: Due to climate change, natural disasters are increasing worldwide. According to research by the National Disaster Management Research Institute, flooding is one of the highest-risk disasters in South Korea, with urban flooding becoming an increasingly dangerous threat. To prevent and prepare for urban floods, establishing a highly accurate monitoring system is essential. However, small-scale model experiments have limitations in developing such monitoring systems. To address these limitations, the River Experiment Center is building a full-scale experimental facility. This pilot experimental facility aims to support the development of monitoring systems and evaluation methods for urban flood defense infrastructure.
