Gene Selkov Aug 7, 2010:
levels? I think "calados" are the levels of 100-year floods. Same for velocities.

Not my field either, but now there's at least two like-minded people with the same thing on their minds :)

If you search on "100 year flood" and "depth map" or "velocity map" you'll see some good examples
