Flood is a frequently occurred disaster and it causes great harm in China. In order to effectively prevent, reduce and relief disaster, it is necessary to establish a flood event information model to represent and share flood information. By far, many scholars have studied a variety of event information models. However, the existed event information models mainly represent static information, and they are lack of the capability to handle dynamic process information. To solve this problem, a flood event model is proposed in this paper based on the flood emergence management stages and the dynamic process from the perspective of observation. To build up the model, this paper firstly describes the modelling considerations, including flood phases, observation, and ten types of primary elements for modeling. Then, we construct the flood event model as a ten tuple model based on MOF modelling framework with four layers, and encode the model with a method that maps the elements of the model to elements of the Event Pattern Markup Language (EML). Finally, we simulated an experiment for a flood case occurred in the Liangzi Lake in 2010 as an example to test the proposed model. In the experiment, the building process and the results of the proposed model at different emergence management stages are detailed. The experiment results show that the proposed model has following characteristics: (1) it establishes a model from the perspective of observation, since observation plays a decisive role in real-time disaster information acquisition. (2) The flood model was established by four emergence management stages, and the main tasks of each stage are different. (3) The flood model was modelled dynamically. The proposed ten tuple model itself is not dynamic, but the establishing process and its represented information are dynamic. The modelling process is modelled on real-time data streams, and it dynamically updates time-series data. The time series data in this model are generally the latest observations, which reveal the dynamic information of current flood. (4) The model is extensible and adaptable to ensure the suitability. As a conclusion, the model can represent flooding events and model dynamic flood information effectively, as well as provide a good approach to represent and share flood information.
