Flood impacts are significant in the region and the GBCMA and partner Councils recognise that at-risk individuals and communities have a major role to play in managing their flood risk. The fit-for-purpose sharing of flood risk information is thus paramount to creating better flood resilient communities. The portal provides property specific flood information to the public, who can view flood maps and download reports on-the-fly saving them and the GBCMA time. This was previously a manual, time-consuming and repetitive process.

Highlights:

  • Flood Information Sharing: Provides the public with secure and easy access to property flood risk information and reports via the web
  • Linked Data: Securely links to official data sources in real time
  • Timely and Consistent Reporting: Reports automatically processed on-the-fly at time of request, ensuring provision of the latest data directly from the official sources, where available
  • Time Savings: Significantly reduced time and cost burden on the Council and CMA staff as well as the public
