Floods represent one of the greatest hazards in the sphere of natural disasters. As a result of flood events, losses and extensive damage arise. Flood losses can generally be divided into the direct and indirect. Their estimation is an essential part of flood risk analysis and management. Direct losses coincide predominantly with material damage ond loss of human life. There exist more or less accurate routine procedures for the estimation of direct material losses which are used in flood protection and risk analysis studies. Indirect damages is difficult to classify and estimate. It includes e.g. lost profit due to the economic failure of entrepreneurial subject, flood-induced socio-psychological problems, health problems, complications affecting transport, water and energy supply, etc.
