abstract = "Cities increasingly face flood risk primarily due to extensive
changes of the natural land cover to built-up areas with
impervious surfaces. In urban areas, flood impacts come mainly
from road interruption. This article proposes an urban flood risk
map from hydrological and mobility data, considering the megacity
of Sao Paulo, Brazil, as a case study. We estimate the flood
susceptibility through the Height Above the Nearest Drainage
algorithm; and the potential impact through the exposure and
vulnerability components. We aggregate all variables into a
regular grid and then classify the cells of each component into
three classes: Moderate, High, and Very High. All components,
except the flood susceptibility, have few cells in the Very High
class. The flood susceptibility component reflects the presence of
watercourses, and it has a strong influence on the location of
those cells classified as Very High.",
