Original Abstract

The proposal of flood control protection calls for the risk and vulnerability degree assessment of inundation area with the evaluation of potential damage on health and lives of population and property. The damage depends on many factors, i.e. water depth and velocity in the inundation area, flood duration and water destructive effect from the point of view mechanical, chemical and biological. Theoretical means, which make possible objective, qualitative and quantitative forecasting flood consequences, are mathematical models of water flow, methods for risk analysis of facilities situated in potentially endangered areas. All these activities are closely connected with the concept of urban planning in these areas. The methodology together with the practical application of the urbanisation of the polder reservoir and adjacent potentially endangered urban area are shown within the paper presented.

Keywords
