This dataset encompasses scripts and data for mapping flood exposure in Rotterdam's unembanked areas from 1970 to 2150. The associated research addresses four key objectives:

Map the total flood exposure in unembanked areas, considering the combined effects of sea level rise, urban development, and the construction of the Maeslant barrier.
Analyze the individual impact of i) sea level rise, ii) urban development and iii) construction of the Maeslant barrier on flood exposure.
Evaluate the geographical distribution of flood exposure across neighborhoods.
Assess the effectiveness of design elevation policies in mitigating flood exposure.

The dataset provides all necessary resources to reproduce the study's results. For a comprehensive overview of the folder structure and contents, please refer to the accompanying FolderStructure.pdf document.
