IDF Curves are essential tools for assessing the likelihood and potential impact of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts.

Understanding IDF Curves

IDF Curves are statistical models that describe the relationship between rainfall intensity, duration, and frequency. They provide critical information for urban planning, infrastructure design, and emergency preparedness.

The Need for Inclusive IDF Curves

The project’s primary objective is to develop Informed Decision Frameworks (IDF) that account for the societal impacts of extreme weather events.

Project Overview

The project aims to develop rainfall Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) curves for each Building Management Company (BMC) in the region.

The Caribbean’s Climate Resilience Project

The Caribbean region is highly vulnerable to the impacts of extreme rainfall, with frequent and intense storms posing a significant threat to human lives and economic stability. To address this vulnerability, a comprehensive project has been launched to enhance disaster preparedness and protect the region’s infrastructure.

Project Objectives

The project’s primary objective is to identify and address vulnerabilities in regional infrastructure, with a focus on enhancing disaster preparedness and response.
