Percentage of Urban Morphological Zones (UMZ) potentially exposed to river flooding (1 in 100 years return period; 2071 - 2100), Jan. 2020
Description
The dataset provides the proportion of the Urban Morphological Zone (densely built-up urban area) potentially at risk of river flooding (1 in 100 years return period), modelled for the future (period 2071 - 2100) for a series of individual European cities (included in Urban Audit). This is based on the modelling of river discharge within LISFLOOD model (JRC).
The indicator values are based on elevation and do not include flood protection measures like dams, dikes, etc., as data for these are not yet available. Areas shown here as potentially at risk of flood might in reality be protected by flood defences. However, since flood protection measures can fail in certain circumstances, the flood risk remains.
