Somerset flood map questions
How do I check if a property in Somerset is in a flood zone?
Search the exact address in the free overlay map, which shows the mapped flood overlays on that property. The suburb shading on this page is a suburb-wide share and does not tell you about a single lot. Somerset Regional Council's own flood mapping and flood searches remain the official sources for planning decisions on a property.
Which Somerset suburbs have the most mapped flood?
By share of suburb area inside mapped flood overlays: Lockrose (94%), Brightview (68%), Clarendon (66%), Patrick Estate (62%), Mount Tarampa (52%). These are suburb-wide shares, so streets within the same suburb can differ.
How much of Somerset is flood mapped?
45 of 78 Somerset suburbs have some area inside mapped flood overlays, 33 have no flood mapping held by LayeredGeo.
What does the Somerset flood map show?
The share of each suburb's area that falls inside the flood mapping LayeredGeo holds for Somerset Regional, shaded in five bands from none to 60% or more. It is a planning-mapping measure, not a prediction of how often a property floods.
