Abstract
Climate change and urbanization have resulted in increased flood risk around the world. However, flood risk management varies in different countries, especially in developed and developing countries. This paper focuses on the comparison of flood control measures in India and the USA. This paper is aimed to find out a clear gap between developed and developing countries in the flood control field. This paper also utilizes a comprehensive database of global flood events. This database is used to visualize the flood trend around the world and help analyze flood severity in both India and the USA. The process mainly includes data mining, pre-processing, visualization, and data analysis (Tableau is used as the premier data visualization tool). This paper hopes to bring about awareness that flood control is of global responsibility and that the gap between developed and developing countries should be reduced as soon as possible.
