Flood Hazard and Flood Risk maps (art 6)

• Reporting deadline 22.3.2014 • Reporting sheets approved in November 2010.• Schemas, GIS Guidance, tools to be issued to the FDRDG end of

April, for written comments until the next meeting• One first round of testing fore seen over the summer.• This step is expected to be more technically complex than

previous reporting steps, so an early start to develop technical formats foreseen.

• The role of INSPIRE obligations will be important and will be taken into account in this process.
