What the map shows: The two maps of pluvial flooding show: [A] the risk of standing water accumulating during heavy rainfall on a bright colour ramp from green to purple, and areas at risk of strong overland flow on a darker colour ramp from green to purple, with purple areas being at highest risk in both cases. The separation into standing water and overland flow can help to target intervention – the dark purple area connected to a bright purple area shows where the water flooding the light purple area originates and, hence, where interventions could be located to disrupt flow paths. [B] the demand based on population density and the Welsh index of multiple deprivation on a gradient from light to dark brown, with darker areas having a higher demand. A purple semi-transparent overly indicates the areas at highest risk from the left-hand map to make the maps spatially comparable.

Urban drainage systems are not considered in this mapping; this could lead to over-estimation of the standing water risk in some ares. Geographic Information System ESRI feature Class Commission Regulation (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services 2010-12-08 false How the map has been created: In order to create the map, a DSM for the whole of Wales was derived from Nextmap DTM and MasterMap, with MasterMap features being assigned an average height, which was then added onto the DTM. The hydrology of the derived DSM was analysed using SciMap (Durham University, 2016). SciMap was originally designed to model erosion risk throughout the landscape. However, one of the intermediate outputs produced, the network index or connectivity, can be used to approximate urban flood risk, when using a DSM model instead of a DTM model as input. The network index expresses how likely a parcel of land is to pass material (in this case, water) on to another area. The areas with a particularly high network index are at the most risk from pluvial flooding. To separate between standing water and overland flow, slope information was used, with areas on slopes less than 3° being considered as at risk from standing water, whilst areas on steeper slopes are considered to be at risk from overland flow. To determine the demand, population density was considered, with the census data being split into 5 classes using Jenks Natural breaks; the highest two classes are high priority areas, the medium class a low priority area. Additionally, the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation was used, in accordance with classes used on wimd.wales.gov.uk. The 2 most deprived classes (rank 1 to 382) are high priority, the medium class (rank 383 to 573) low priority. This dataset was produced for NRW under contract by Environment Systems Ltd.
