Hydroinformatic Tools for Flood Risk Map Achievement Erika Beilicci, Robert Beilicci, Ioan David „POLITECHNICA“ University of Timisoara Department of Hydrotechnical Engineering Timisoara, Romania beilicci_erika@yahoo.com Abstract— Water Framework Directive and Flood Directive of European Commission establishes the need for preparation of flood risk maps for each member country on each important hydrographic basins. Based on these established the flood risk management plan (must be finalized by end of 2015), which is a communicator and disseminator tool of the knowledge gained during two previous stages across the horizontal structures of governmental and non-governmental bodies dealing with flood protection, flood mitigation and flood struggle in general. Flood risk management plans, considered as a communicator and disseminator tool across the horizontal structures of governmental and non-governmental bodies dealing with flood protection, flood mitigation and flood struggle in general. They mainly include proposals on how to reduce the losses of lives, property and environmental through flood prevention, protection of vulnerable areas and increased flood preparedness in each river basin. The way of processing of this flood risk management plans on IT platforms changes the information stream flow. Future development plans of regions and cities will get a proper guidance and platforms for future feasibility studies. In Romania, each state institution wants to improve the skills of their employees. There is a lack of specialists who has enough knowledge about the hydroinformatics, thus in everyday work there is a very limited use of such tool, meanwhile the work with complex problems has generated recently a need to use valuable tool. Keywords— management, flood, flood risk management plan, hydroinformatic tools I. INTRODUCTION Floods are natural phenomena which cannot be prevented. Some human activities and climate change contribute to an increase in the likelihood and adverse impacts of flood events. In order to have available an effective tool for information, as well as a valuable basis for priority setting and further technical, financial and political decisions regarding flood risk management, it is necessary to provide for the establishing of flood hazard maps and flood risk maps showing the potential adverse consequences associated with different flood scenarios, including information on potential sources of environmental pollution as a consequence of floods [1]. EU Member States should assess activities that have the effect of increasing flood risks. For to avoiding and reducing the adverse impacts of floods in the area concerned it is appropriate to provide flood risk management plans. Flood risk management plans should therefore take into account the particular characteristics of the areas they cover and provide for tailored solutions according to the needs and priorities of those areas, whilst ensuring relevant coordination within river basin districts and promoting the achievement of environmental objectives laid down in Community legislation [1]. Flood risk management plans should focus on prevention, protection and preparedness. With a view to giving rivers more space, they should consider where possible the maintenance and/or restoration of floodplains, as well as measures to prevent and reduce damage to human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity. The elements of flood risk management plans should be periodically reviewed and if necessary updated, taking into account the likely impacts of climate change on the occurrence of floods [1]. Today, many national development and investment programs are needed to be done in relation to flood mitigation, adaptation and protection as well as to water scarcity and drought. It means huge infrastructural investments are and will running in these fields, particularly but not solely in the newly accessed countries and in water sector. Each EU member state implementing Water Framework Directive (WFD) and Flood Directive (FD) 2007/60/EC, needs wide and interdisciplinary knowledge to be able to create area- adjusted solutions which provides solution for the local needs by understanding the national/country specific environmental processes. In Europe, water managers must address the key requirements of the FD. Flood risk management planning represents the most important element of EU Flood Directive. This is a communicator and disseminator of the knowledge gained during two previous stages across the horizontal structures of governmental and non-governmental bodies dealing with flood protection, flood mitigation and flood struggle in general, included public involvement in this process. These plans must be finalised as the final round of the first planning cycle of EU Flood Directive by the end of the year 2015. Flood risk management plans mainly include proposals on how to reduce the losses of lives, property and environmental through flood prevention, protection of vulnerable areas and increased flood
