The maps have been developed based on extensive technical input and flood modelling expertise. These maps are currently undergoing a final peer review to confirm on-ground conditions and are proposed to be available publicly in the near future.

It is industry practice to review flood maps every five to ten years based on the level of potential impact and occurrence and the observed changes to climate, land use (such as increases in impervious surfaces due to development, and understanding of climate including expected rainfall intensity) and the stormwater network.
