| Abstract | The main objective of this paper is to assess the level of flood risk in terms of potential material losses within areas exposed to flooding, in five small towns – Dzialoszyn, Poddebice, Sulejow, Uniejow and Warta. The research includes small towns of Łodź province which display high and very high flood risk levels according to the methodology used in Flood protection operating plan for the Łodź province from 2013 (Plan operacyjny ochrony przed powodzią dla wojewodztwa lodzkiego). Assessment of tangible losses was accomplished Under the Regulation of the Minister of the Environment, the Minister of Transport, Construction and Marine Economy, the Minister of Administration and Digitalization and the Minister of Internal Affairs as of 21 December 2012 on elaboration of flood hazard maps and flood risk maps. In this article the research includes areas particularly and potentially exposed to risk of flooding, which have been designated on the flood hazard maps. Potential losses were researched using the analysis of land use, Topographic Data Base and field research. Land use and material damage were presented using GIS methods. In Dzialoszyn and Uniejow are the highest material losses within particularly flood hazard areas. It is associated with the existence of service-production and residential areas. The potential hazard areas are only in three towns – Sulejow, Uniejow and Warta. The largest surface of built up areas and thus the highest potential losses are in Sulejow. The analysis of flood risk levels is of a great importance and it enables authorities to conduct a suitable anti-flood protection policy (Borowska-Stefanska 2015b). |
