The frequency and duration of inundations in floodplains is of great interest as it affects habitat provision and biodiversity as well as various biogeochemical soil processes maintaining water quality. The development of the Inundation Calculator is intended to enable a simple approximation of yearly average flooding durations in floodplains by using river water levels and the floodplain topography. We are often confronted with the problem that no spatially and/or temporally high-resolution remote sensing data or open source 3D flooding model are available. So we need to find easy solutions which can be applied by everyone, although these remain rough approximations and users must be aware of application limitations.
