In the news, there are often reports on flooding impacting communities around the world such as the current floods in Australia. Wondering what agent-based models exisit of floods I came across a rather nice paper and model by Dawson et al (2011)
entitled "An Agent-based Model for Risk-based Flood Incident Management" which describes the coupling of ABM to a raster cell flood model. The movie below shows the basic functioning of the model.
Its always nice when authors provide the model along with the paper, in this case the model can be found here
