European Flood Awareness System

It provides complementary, flood early warning information up to 10 days in advance to its partners, the national/regional hydrological services and the European Response and Coordination Centre (ERCC).

- the general hydrological conditions of 2017;
- the gaps within the data collection;
- the exceedance of hydrological thresholds; and
- flood events.
