Each council is shaded by the share of its addresses whose lot is at least partly on land a hazard map or planning overlay shows, counted among the addresses where that map applies: the same figures as each council page, from our weekly build of every address in the State. A map is a planning trigger, not a risk model. Select a council to see where the mapped land is: drag to move the map, pinch, scroll with Ctrl or ⌘, or use + and − to zoom.

Partly mapped: the map covers only part of the council, so no share is given. Other classes: the map records its own classes, so no share is given. Not applied: fewer than one address in ten here is on land whose planning scheme uses the overlay, too few to give a share; not a finding about the land. Each council page explains its figure.
