The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is set to review the DSS-WISE™ Lite system in an upcoming webinar. DSS-WISE™ Lite is a web-based, automated two-dimensional dam- and levee-break flood modeling and mapping capability developed by the National Center for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering (NCCHE) at the University of Mississippi, with funding from FEMA. The system is accessible via the DSS-WISE™ Web platform (https://dsswiseweb.ncche.olemiss.edu/) providing access to a secure, web-based environment consisting of a graphical user interface and a map server.
The system is available 24/7 and free of charge to registered users. The DSS-WISE™ Lite Prep Tool with real-time error checking allows the user to quickly set up and run dam and levee breach scenarios with resolutions from 20 ft. to 200 ft. in 12 intuitive easy steps. The data entry by the user is minimal. The preparation of the input data for the numerical model is fully automated.
The parallelized computational engine uses a state-of-the-art, shock capturing, upwind scheme to solve two-dimensional full dynamic shallow water equations efficiently and quickly to provide a rich set of results. DSS-WISE™ Lite has been successfully used as an operational modeling tool during numerous emergencies for emergency response planning. As the simulation is being computed, the user can monitor the propagation of the flood and the inundation extent on a secure web page.
