Sponge City for flood control: implementation, challenges and opportunities
研究调查了加拿大某城市利益相关者对海绵城市的熟悉程度，利用地理空间数据和卫星图像确定最佳实施地点，发现海绵城市能增强城市韧性，但存在公众参与、资金和物理障碍等问题。
Abstract Climate change-induced extreme weather events continue to occur. China experiences flooding due to climate conditions and rapid urbanisation (Ding et al., 2022; Zheng et al., 2018). Sponge City, initially developed in China, is a systematic water management approach promoting green and blue infrastructure, including wetlands and rain gardens, together with sustainably engineered drainage systems (Li et al., 2016). This study examines stakeholder familiarity with Sponge City in a Canadian city. Geospatial data and satellite imagery identified optimal locations for implementation. Findings suggest that Sponge City enhances urban resiliency; however, issues remain, including public involvement, financial and physical barriers.
