Example of a flood risk map

What do flood maps show?

The data used to describe the adverse consequences is collated and displayed on a 250m grid and includes information such as:

• the number of inhabitants who could be adversely affected
• the affect on economic activity (in terms of the monetary damage)
• the locations of flood prone industrial sites that might cause accidental pollution and in particular where this could impact nationally important environmental areas
