Flooding is a major hazard in Great Britain.  An estimated five million households - one in five - are at risk to flooding.  And annual damage from flood is estimated at between £500 million and £1 billion each year.

Data from Met Office UK Climate Projections (UKCP) indicate that the UK is likely to receive more bouts of heavy rain more frequently as temperatures rise as a result of climate change. The number of flood events is likely to increase, and along with it, the potential for loss and damage.  Data for different types of flooding (groundwater, surface, river and coastal flooding) is key to managing the risk both now and in the future.

We supply UK flood hazard and risk mapping in many formats from leading specialists JBA Risk Management and Royal Haskoning (Twinn, Ambiental).  We supply data and web services to planners, developers, lenders and insurers alike for assessing the likelihood of flooding and mitigating risk.
