Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea

This record is for Approval for Access product AfA379. Previously known as NaFRA Spatial Flood Likelihood Category Grid (Internal). This is a national assessment of flood risk for England produced using local expertise.



The dataset shows the chance of flooding from rivers and/or the sea, based on cells of 50m. Each cell is allocated one of four flood risk categories, taking into account flood defences and their condition. No more detailed resolution is provided.

Statement

This data was created using the Modelling and Decision Support Framework (MDSF2). This data contains information from Centre for Ecology & Hydrology and Ordnance Survey. Some locations do not reflect other information we hold about flood risk. We are incorporating this local data into a national update of this product, and advise customers to contact local environment agency offices for the most up to date information until the national update is available.
