Flood Risk Mapping: framing the application• Planning decisions

• Emergency planning

• Flood damage assessments and defence design

• Insurance

• Generating householder resilience

Sources of Uncertainty in Flood Risk Mapping

Guidelines for Good Practice as Decision Trees• Assumptions to be agreed between analyst and

stakeholder(s)…..provides framework for discussing and handling knowledge uncertainties

• Explicit agreement and record means that later evaluation and review can be carried out

• Default options, or decision tree of potential options

Mexborough Risk Mapping: Defining Input Uncertainties

WinFAP estimate of 0.01 AEP (T100) flood peak at Adwick

Mean: 86.6 (m3s-1)

Var: 6.25 (m3s-1)

Summary• Guidelines for good practice as decision trees

allows dialogue and audit of difficult decisions about uncertainty

• Good visualisation tools required to communicate meaning of results to users and stakeholders (see demonstration)

• Full FRMRC Guidelines Report will be available shortly
