Brief description
Polygon data delineating modelled statistical flood extent with an Average Recurrence Interval (ARI) of 100 years. For historical/actual flood extents, refer to 'Historic_extent' layer.\nAlso known as the 1 in 100 year flood layer, it is used, amoung other things, in the creation of 'Land Subject to Innundation' areas as used in Planning Scheme Zones. The 1 in 100 year data is not restricted.\nThis data is part of a group of layers depicting a range of statistical ARI extents. Current layers include 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 year intervals, each in a seperate dataset.\nThe layer called EXTENT_PMF represents areas of 'probable maximum flood' and is also part of this group.\nThe data is statistically derived using hydrological models, historic flood extents and heights.Full description
