Risk mapping
Guidance on the code of practice for property flood resilience, published by CIRIA in 2021, defines risk mapping as: ‘The process of establishing the spatial extent of risk (combining information on probability and consequences). Risk mapping requires combining maps of hazards and vulnerabilities. The results of these analyses are usually presented in the form of maps that show the magnitude and nature of risk as well.’
