The EU flood directive requires to create flood risk management plans for potential risk areas until 2015. In Styria, 55 risk areas were defined.

In cooperation with all affected technical fields, administration entities and affected bodies, the needs of the risk areas were analyzed. The necessary measures to reduce the risk of floods were defined in the flood risk management plans. For each risk, maps for the flood risk and an overview about measures that must be set in the future are available.
RIOCOM conducted the process support and coordinated the creation of the plans by different experts.
