Kolejka, Jaromír ; Krejčí, Tomáš ; Rapant, P. ; Inspektor, T.
Locating and developing factors are generally well known, studied and taken into account in the accepting of the solution. In contrast, the limiting factors of development usually stands in the background. Current data sources, knowledge and modelling technologies allow greatly anticipate the extent of the flood situation. Evaluation of the risk of regional or flash floods is not discouraging information for investors, but rather to guide their activities to a safe area. Knowledge of risk locations in the Czech Republic in terms of these types of floods also help for the safety of visitors and the local population. Appropriately incorporated findings into the development plans of all dimensions support the initiatives of local and external investors. The paper illustrates the unconventional use of public available geodata in the form of an offer vital information into regional development plans.

Flash floods are very important natural phenomenon today, which is devoted considerable attention in the general public, the media, the public administration system in the professional community The main characteristic of flash floods from the perspective of crisis management is the short time between the cause (torrential precipitation) and the result (flooding of the territory and the emergence of major damages or even loss of life). Right the shortness of time implies that to save lives it is necessary to obtain a warning of impending danger in the shortest possible time after the cause. To do this, a new methodology that enables to identify streams, which may be the subject of intense water runoff and thus manifestations of flash floods was created (Rapant, et al., 2015).
