Risk areas#

These maps show the potential adverse consequences associated with flooding according to the type of economic activity in the area that may be affected, and associate them with different return periods (10, 100 and 500 years).

Visualization#

3 return periods are displayed:

  • 10 year return period.

  • 100 year return period.

  • 500 year return period.

To facilitate visualization, the number of categories has been simplified into:

  • Urbano
  • Industrial
  • Infraestructura
  • Otros
Flood risk areas (SNCZI)

  • AU : Associated with urban → Urban

  • AC : Concentrated urban → Urban

  • UD : Urban dispersed → Urban

  • UR : Construction associated with urban → Urban

  • URC : Construction associated with concentrated urban → Urban

  • URD : Construction associated with dispersed urban → Urban
