Introduction

With the rise in temperature around the globe sea levels and rain levels have risen a significant amount, a consequence of this is that natural hazards have been occurring more often and at a more predictable rate (source here). In the past 5 years Ottawa has seen to separate flood by the Ottawa river and two tornadoes one in the east and one in the west, respectively. It has become incredibly important to create simulation that can give you a realistic idea of the damage that the city will take during one of these natural hazards. Planning potential displacements and food shortages in advance would greatly reduce the time for aid after a devastating event.
