Abstract 

In recent years, more and more often you can see the picture of the flood situation, this is provoked by the irrational use of water protection areas, land and forest resources. Each of these land categories has changed due to an increase in the anthropogenic load factor. The lack of clear instructions affects the effectiveness of flood risk management plans, their quality and coordination ability depends on the practical experience of the developers. A basic model of the flooded zones of the Uzh river was developed in the paper using the DEM and the equation of the annual water balance, taking into account the coefficients that affect the surface runoff, namely the influence of the vegetation covers and the granulometric composition. Such model gives possibility to show the risks of flooding and help develop a flood protection program for population.
