The increasing urbanization process causes changes in the hydrological cycle, due to the soil sealing. As a result, the infiltration of rainwater decreases, and the volume and velocity of runoff increases, causing the amount of water that reaches the water courses by the time is much bigger, which can cause flooding in areas that were not predisposed to such an event under natural conditions. With the occupation of floodplain areas of rivers and streams, added to sealing, the return time of the phenomenon decreases sharply, putting human lives at risk and bringing material damages. Even in a small city like Rio das Pedras - SP, which has not yet reported any flooding cases, with expansion and urbanization over the decades can start to have urban drainage problems with Ribeirão Tijuco Preto, which cuts the city in half. Predicting scenarios and being able to estimate when the problems will arise is essential for urban and environmental planning in the city, allowing the taking of preventive measures and minimizing risks
