British Geological Survey (BGS): Areas Susceptible to Groundwater Flooding (2010) (3rd Party Data)

  • English

  • All

2010 1km Gridded 'Areas Susceptible to Groundwater Flooding 'data is derived from BGS 'Susceptibility to Groundwater Flooding' dataset. The data is a 1 kilometre square grid that identifies at a broad scale areas susceptible to flooding from groundwater on the basis of geological and hydrogeological conditions. It does not show the likelihood of groundwater flooding occurring and therefore is a hazard not risk-based dataset. It does not take account areas where groundwater is likely to pond or flow, but simply considers where groundwater might emerge. Hazard is represented by one of four area categories showing the proportion of each 1 km square that is susceptible to groundwater flood emergence < 25%, >= 25% <50%, >=50% <75%, >= 75%, Absence of a value means that no risk is anticipated to be present.
