AbstractFloods are the geological and geographical risk with high social and economic impact. The anthropic development of the basin of the Eume river makes it increasingly more important to control the aspects that contribute to flooding in the area. The Eume river is the sixth Galician river in length, 80 km, and has a drainage area of 470.22 km2. It contains nine municipalities and more than 45.000 people. In the oceanic climate of Galicia, which reach 2.000 mm of annual precipitation, and where the watersheds are maximally exploited, flood risk should be considered. This paper presents the process of developing floodplain mapping for three sectors of Eume River basin: Serra do Xistral, As Pontes de García Rodríguez and river mouth. The delineation of flood areas was carried out by combining statistical, hydrological and geomorphological methods. Some project procedures have been automated by the use of geographic information systems.
