Across Europe flood mapping practices are already developed, although there is still much work to do to ensure all relevant areas are covered.
In 2006-2007 a group called EXCIMAP (European Exchange Circle on Flood Mapping"), operating under a mandate from the Water Directors and composed of flood mapping experts from most EU Member States, reviewed current flood mapping practices in Europe.
This resulted in the production of a Handbook of good practices in flood mapping, an as part of that an Atlas of Flood Maps, with examples from 19 European countries, USA and Japan.
