A 50m grid interval DTM derived by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology from 1:50,000 scale mapping from Ordnance Survey and Land & Property Services (previously OSNI). The IHDTM is comprised of five separate gridded datasets.
Each IHDTM grid is hydrologically consistent with the other IHDTM grids and with the CEH 1:50,000 Watercourse Network dataset.
The five gridded datasets are -
Recorded Flood Outlines of Individual Events contains the records of historic flooding.
The Environment Agency's Recorded Flood Outline dataset contains each individual flood outline in England and Wales. If a town has flooded for example four times and there are suitable records of this, the dataset will contain an outline for each separate flood event. It would be possible to overlay outlines on top of each other.

A new report from the UK Water Partnership, Droughts and Floods – towards a more holistic approach has just been published. It can be found here with an accompanying blog by the leading author Jim Wharfe.
The UK Water Partnership is now exploring how to take forward the recommendation for a more holistic environmental approach to flooding and drought research, innovation and implementation, including opportunities for a range of ecosystem-related markets.
The Water Security Knowledge Exchange Portal supports the objectives of the UK Water Partnership - a collaboration between the water industry, policy and research communities. It provides guidance and co-ordination for water research and innovation in the UK.
