I met with the developer about 3 years ago, it was still actively developed back then but it's been a while since I heard any news. We played a bit with the sample projects back then. Resolution requirements depend on your objectives, i.e. accuracy will improve with a more detailed terrain model.

Great points, Niklas. Leadership and uptake at all responsible levels of government is absolutely essential for flood resilience.
