Due to the global climate change and the impact of human activities,urban waterlogging disasters occurred frequently in recent years.Under this background,and from the perspective of terrain features we briefly describe the area where the urban waterlogging happened easily,analyze the causes of urban waterlogging,summarize the main factors of occurring the urban waterlogging as natural factors,planning factors,engineering factors,management factors,and discuss the factors above respectively.We also review the practices and improvements in the process of solving the problems of urban drainage and waterlogging from the aspects of engineering measures and non-engineering measures,and point out the problems existing in planning and design,pipe network construction,system mechanism and emergency rescue insufficient.In view of the shortcomings in the existing research,we point out the problems that need to be solved urgently in urban waterlogging control under the changing environment.
