If you go to http://explorer.geowessex.com/ and enter the WMT's postcode (BH21 1DY), the map will show the Model Town. Then go to the Layers control, turn on Flooding; Floodzones 3 and you will see that the flood plain goes round the Model Town. Even the 1 in 1000 year layer doesn't really touch it. The main floodzone follows the River Stour with much smaller floodzones around the River Allen. The model town only includes the two branches of the River Allen within its boundaries. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2017-06-06 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk / CHECK IF YOU'RE REPLYING Reporting bugs well: http://goo.gl/4Xue / TO THE LIST OR THE AUTHOR
