Central Coast, NSW introduces a pair of interactive flood mapping tools for improved resilience

Central Coast, NSW Interactive Flood Mapping Resilience

Complete

Central Coast created a flood extents map for every property near Tuggerah Lake with waterRIDE LITE. Users toggle through current, minor, moderate, major, and probable maximum flooding (PMF) options for color-coded map layers. A council-wide digital tool built with Esri displays flood precincts, PMF risk levels, and 1-in-100-year hazard classifications. Council officials complemented these new tools with online resources for flood mitigation and emergency planning.
