Waterways of Denmark

Sub-basins include two nationwide digital catchment maps showing river basins and river basins. This information is displayed and used in the Hydrological Information and Forecasting System at hipdata.dk. The purpose of the maps is to support the work on holistic climate adaptation for river systems.

Rubber boot index is a screening tool that can be used to assess how deep the water will be in different areas when sea level rises. It is important to note that the rubber boot index does not take into account sewerage or seepage of the water. The rubber boot index is part of Denmark's Hydrological Height Models.

River surfaces are used to visualize the distribution and width of rivers in various map solutions.

Model uncertainty is a data product that includes modelled depth for ground water and water flow in the period 1990-2019. The calculations were performed by GEUS using DK model HIP to show the suitability of HIP model calculations for screening.

Seawater on Land is a screening tool that shows which areas will be flooded by a particular sea level rise, e.g. in connection with storm surges or climate change. The tool can be used to identify potential floodplains. It is important to note that Seawater on Land does not take into account sewerage or seepage of the water. Seawater on land is part of Denmark's Hydrological Height Models.

Flow Extreme rain is a screening tool that visualizes the way the water will run through the landscape in case of extreme rain, where there is no sewerage or seepage. The screening tool can be used independently or combined with e.g. Bluespot. Flow extreme rain is part of Denmark's Hydrological Height Models.
