🌊 Modeling a potential dam breach — and how panic spread beyond the real watershed

This project assessed the potential consequences of a dam failure at a mine-water impoundment in the Svystunova Gully.

🔹 Reconstructed the original pre-impoundment terrain from archival topographic maps.
🔹 Used Sentinel-based land-cover classification to assign variable Manning’s roughness coefficients.
🔹 Built a modern DEM including the dam structure and current flooded zone.
🔹 Simulated dam-break flood dynamics in GRASS GIS — frame by frame.
🔹 Produced a video visualization to help local communities understand real risks (and ignore fake ones).
🔹 The results were later featured in regional media and used in discussions about mine-water safety.
