| Coastal Design Sea Levels- Coastal Flood Boundary Confidence Intervals |
This metadata record is for AfA product AfA188-2. Extreme Sea Level Confidence information is part of Coastal Design/Extreme Sea Levels, a GIS dataset and supporting information providing design / extreme sea level and typical surge information around the coastline of England and Wales under present day conditions. Data for Scotland is available from the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). This is a specialist dataset which informs on work commenced around the coast ranging from coastal flood modelling, scheme design, strategic planning and flood risk assessments. Extreme Sea Level Confidence information describes the extreme sea levels for 16 different annual probabilities of exceedance. |

| Historic Flood Warnings |
This record is for Approval for Access product AfA435. Listing of Severe Flood Warnings, Flood Warnings and Flood Alerts issued since the Floodline Warnings Direct service went live on January 26th 2006 to the present. This dataset includes flood warnings issued by the Environment Agency. Flood warnings are issued for flooding from rivers and the sea and, for a limited number of locations, for groundwater flooding. There are three flood warning codes and a notification when warnings are removed. These are:- Severe Flood Warning: Severe flooding. Danger to life.- Flood Warning: Flooding is expected. Immediate action required.- Flood Alert: Flooding is possible. Be prepared.- Warning no longer in force: Flood warnings and flood alerts that have been removed in the last 24 hours.Live flood warnings in force are shown on GOV.UK and are available as a separate live feed on GOV.UK. |

| Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea - Postcodes in Areas at Risk |
This record is for Approval for Access product AfA380. Previously known as NaFRA Postcode Flood Likelihood Category Database. This dataset is a product of a national assessment of flood risk for England produced using local expertise. This dataset is produced using [Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea] which shows the chance of flooding from rivers and/or the sea, based on cells of 50m. Each cell is allocated one of four flood risk categories, taking into account flood defences and their condition. This dataset uses OS address data and Royal Mail postcode data to show how many properties are in each of four flood risk categories in each postcode, based simply on the category allocated to the cell that each property is in. |

| Shoreline Management Plan Mapping |
This record is for Approval for Access product AfA196. This dataset identifies which second generation Shoreline Management Plan is applicable to a particular stretch of coastline. It also identifies the policies which are applicable. It is a polyline, spatial data layer. A Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) is a large-scale assessment of the risks associated with coastal processes and helps reduce these risks to people and the developed, historic and natural environments. Coastal processes include tidal patterns, wave height, wave direction and the movement of beach and seabed materials. The SMPs provide a ‘route map’ for local authorities and other decision makers to move from the present situation towards meeting our future needs, and will identify the most sustainable approaches to managing the risks to the coast in the short term (0-20 years), medium term (20-50 years) and long term (50-100 years). INFORMATION WARNINGThis dataset was created for the purposes of creating a strategic overview map; as a consequence it was created at a notional scale of 1:250,000, this means that the definition of the breakpoints and the accuracy to which the SMP lengths reflect the 'coastline' is suitable for strategic level use only. Consideration should be given as to whether it should be replaced by a more accurate representation. More detailed representations of the SMP boundaries may be available at Local/Regional level.Costing information is at a broad scale and indicative only. It not appropriate for any detailed costings work, or for identifying planned capital expenditure. This dataset contains hyperlinks to websites operated by other parties.
