Australian Flood Studies Database - A Freely Available National Catalogue

Every year floods cause millions of dollars damage to buildings and infrastructure, as well as to agricultural land and crops. They also disrupt business, and affect the safety and health of communities. The losses due to flooding vary widely from year to year and are dependent on a number of factors such as the severity of a flood and its location. Between 1967 and 2005 the average annual direct cost of floods in Australia has been estimated at AUD$377 million (BITRE 2008). This figure is likely to have risen following the widespread and devastating floods across eastern Australia that occurred over the summer of 2010-11.
