Short summary
Flood hazard maps are crucial for flood risk management. Since flood hazard is a multi-dimensional phenomenon, many different maps could be relevant. Having a large number of maps to take into account does not, however, make planning easier. To support flood risk management planning we therefore introduce a new approach in which all relevant flood hazard parameters can be combined into two comprehensive maps of flood damage hazard and flood fatality hazard.
Flood hazard maps are crucial for flood risk management. Since flood hazard is a...
