Abstract: In connection with the problem that how the ability of flood control system to resist the over-standard flood can be improved during the flood control planning work, the Compound Poisson model is used to calculate the over-standard flood risk in this paper. Several flood control planning schemes are compared by their ability to decrease the over-standard flood risk. The results show it is practical for the flood risk analysis to be used in decision making for flood control planning.
