WMS Share of built-up areas in the recent floodplain

Description

Floodplains have a high social significance, because the risk of flooding poses a direct threat to human lives. Repeated flooding or even the risk alone can significantly reduce the quality of life. In addition, there can be immense economic damage. The avoidance of floodwaters through natural support in the floodplain also contributes to the avoidance of significant costs of technical protective measures. The built-up settlement and traffic areas restrict the recent floodplain in its function (and thus the potential performance). Flooded settlement and traffic areas also have retention functions and they may avoid flooding elsewhere, but suffer considerable damage by flooding themselves. In terms of the performance of ecosystems, the concept of ecosystems is only to a limited extent applicable to settlement and traffic areas for ÖSL flood retention. Therefore, the retention effects of settlement and traffic areas are not considered as ÖSL. In addition, in the event of flood events, civil protection measures are basically aimed at protecting settlements and transport infrastructure, for example, with mobile flood protection facilities.
