River flooding - Local areas
Wat erin zit
This dataset provides estimates on the share of population exposed to river flooding in OECD Local Areas. Population exposure to river flooding is assessed using a 100-year return period, which corresponds to the average duration between two flooding events of the same intensity. The data is organized at Territorial Level 2 (TL2). To visualize the data at Local Area level, click on the corresponding TL2 indicator. The full dataset can be downloaded here: Download Microdata Data sources and methodology River flooding indicators are estimated using the River Flood Hazard Maps at European and Global Scales datasets (Dottori, F. et al., 2021) , which provide the extent of river floods for different return periods (10 to 100 years). A return period corresponds to the estimated time interval between floods of similar intensity. For OECD countries located in Europe and the Mediterranean … Gegevens van 2020 tot 2020. 115.548 waarnemingen.
