The City of Launceston's Acting Roads and Hydraulics manager Cory talks us through some of the Council's 3D visualisation software. The software can simulate the level of the recent floods, and show what the impacts would have been without a flood levee system to protect low-lying parts of the city. | City of Launceston Official | Facebook

What is a levee? Watch this levee explainer video, which may answer some of your questions about levees, the risks, and how they work. During a flood, a levee may be threatening to breach or fail creating a risk for communities who live behind the levee. This means that people may be asked to relocate to a safer area. Our friends at NSW SES have given us permission to use this video. *Please note, some vision from interstate has also been used for explanative purposes. For updates go to: sa.gov.
