Risk of Flooding from Surface Water (RoFSW) map is an assessment of where surface water flooding may occur when rainwater does not drain away through the normal drainage systems or soak into the ground, but lies on or flows over the ground instead. It includes information about flooding extents and depths. It is produced using national scale modelling and enhanced with compatible, locally produced modelling from lead local flood authorities (LLFAs).

RoFSW is a probabilistic product, meaning that it shows the overall risk, rather than the risk associated with a specific event or scenario. In externally published versions of this dataset, risk is displayed as one of three likelihood bandings:

High - greater than or equal to 3.3% chance in any given year (1 in 30)
Medium - less than 3.3% (1 in 30) but greater than or equal to 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year
Low - less than 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year

NB. This is a complex dataset, with preview available only on certain zoom levels. The Web Mapping service has been set to 1:50 000 in the

This dataset presents the risk which takes account of the following climate change allowances based on the latest UK Climate Projections (UKCP18) from the Met Office, using the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5:

- the ‘Central’ allowance for the 2050s epoch (2040-2060) for risk of flooding from surface water.

These allowances include anticipated changes to peak rainfall intensity.
