Originally, this polygon was produced for the floodplain status report (Auenzustandsbericht; Brunotte et al. (2009), Bundesamt für Naturschutz (2009)) at a scale of 1:25,000. For hydflood it was updated with recent flood protection measures and manually improved with recent digital elevation models and aerial images at a scale of < 1:10,000.
