Lineage
The latest versions of the Risk of Flooding Rivers and Sea (RoFRS) products and the National Receptors Dataset (NRD)* are used to create this product. We collate the number of NRD property receptors in each postcode according to the flood likelihood category (RoFRS) allocated to the land that each property sits within.  This does not provide an indication of the total number of properties within a postcode. *The NRD is developed by the Environment Agency, however it is based on Ordnance Survey data (AddressBase Premium and OS MasterMap Topography Layer) and we do not have permission to release this as Open Data.
