Handbook on good practices for flood mapping in Europe

This handbook refers to the experiences of EU Member States gained through the number of flood mapping projects and work programmes that have taken place across Europe. Many countries have specific experiences and expertise which is captured in this handbook and to be shared with others. Moreover this handbook can be useful for local authorities and other specific stakeholders to assist them in understanding flood risks and preparing for flooding, and to decide what mapping has to be done to meet their needs.
