ABSTRACT Sustainable flood risk management in Scotland is underpinned by the Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Act 2009. Effective delivery of actions to reduce the adverse impact of flooding are dependent on a collaborative approach by Responsible Authorities and a common understanding of flood hazard and risk. Over the last few decades, flood hazard maps have established a prominent role as essential tools in supporting effective flood risk management. They have developed as a result of improved national datasets and advances in computer processing. Improvements in modelling confidence and in the spatial representation of hazard and risk-inform confident actions set out in Flood Risk Management Strategies that coordinate actions supporting adaptation to future hazard conditions. The continued development of the accurate spatial representation of flood hazard and risk is an essential component of enhancing resilience in the face of future climate change.

苏格兰洪水风险管理洪水地图的发展

摘要 苏格兰的可持续洪水风险管理以 2009 年洪水风险管理(苏格兰)法案为基础。有效实施减少洪水不利影响的行动取决于负责当局的协作方法以及对洪水灾害和风险的共同理解。在过去的几十年里,洪水灾害地图作为支持有效洪水风险管理的重要工具已经确立了重要的作用。它们是由于国家数据集的改进和计算机处理的进步而发展起来的。洪水风险管理战略中提出的建模置信度和危害空间表示的改进和风险告知自信的行动,这些行动协调支持适应未来灾害条件的行动。
