South Gippsland flood map questions

How do I check if a property in South Gippsland is in a flood zone?

Search the exact address in the free overlay map, which shows the mapped flood overlays on that property.

South Gippsland Council's own flood mapping and flood searches remain the official sources for planning decisions on a property.

Which South Gippsland suburbs have the most mapped flood?

By share of suburb area inside mapped flood overlays: Port Welshpool (90%), Port Franklin (66%), Sandy Point (42%), Venus Bay (39%), Outtrim (26%). These are suburb-wide shares, so streets within the same suburb can differ.

What does the South Gippsland flood map show?

The share of each suburb's area that falls inside the flood mapping LayeredGeo holds for South Gippsland, 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.
