Flood Disadvantage - Scotland

This dataset presents flood disadvantage for the whole of Scotland using the 2001 Data Zone geography. It includes 34 vulnerability indicators, social vulnerability to flooding, percentage of households exposed to flooding, flood disadvantage and geographical location. The dataset was produced as part of the Mapping Flood Disadvantage in Scotland project commissioned by the Scottish Government in 2015. The project aim was to provide a spatial assessment of social vulnerability to flooding and flood disadvantage in Scotland, to enable local authorities, service providers and other agencies to better target work around flood resilience and response, and in particular to assist local authorities in meeting their duties under the Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Act 2009.
