What stands out

What we found in Tudela de Duero

It comes from matching each building with its neighbourhood, its street, the nearest watercourse and its surroundings.

1

1.987 homes in a flood zone

1.987 homes

They are in the area that can flood once every 500 years according to the official maps (SNCZI); 562 of them are in the 100-year area. Next to Río Duero, 476 homes are inside the flood zone, less than 100 m from the watercourse.

According to the Ministry’s studies, this is an annual probability of 0,2 % (500 years) or 1 % (100 years), not “once every 500 years”: it can happen two years in a row. Small gullies are not always mapped.

2

1.929 homes at very high wildfire risk

1.781 buildings

These are 1.781 buildings right next to vegetation that can burn. Of these, 8 are blocks of flats with 287 homes, where evacuation is harder.

  • Paseo de la Requejada: 62
  • Calle Bosque: 48
  • Carretera de Aldeamayor: 31

Proximity to woodland and to burnt areas (ESA WorldCover, EFFIS). It does not measure the state of the vegetation or any firebreaks.

Where there are fewer trees, 3,9 °C hotter

3,9 °C

Around homes with less than 2 % tree cover, the surface in summer is 2,1 °C above the median for Tudela de Duero; with more than 40 % tree cover, 1,8 °C below. 142 homes are in surroundings with almost no trees.

Ground surface temperature (Landsat), not air temperature. More trees usually go with less asphalt and lower density: this is a correlation, not a measure of the effect of planting trees.

4

2 schools, care homes or health centres in a flood zone

2 facilities

They are in the official 500-year flood zone or in a preferential flow zone. They are the first to review in an emergency plan: who is inside, how to get out and whether they use the ground floor.

2 schools in heat islands

2 of 5

Schools whose surroundings are at least 1 °C hotter than the municipal median in summer. They are the first candidates for shade and tree-lined playgrounds.

What can be done

For the town council and for residents

For the town council and its technical staff

  • Shade and trees in the playgrounds of the 2 schools with the hottest surroundings.
  • Review with the river basin authority the watercourses with no official mapping that run next to homes, and keep them clear.
  • Firebreaks and evacuation routes in the streets that border woodland.
  • Emergency self-protection plans in the schools, care homes and health centres that are in a flood zone.
  • Download the tables by area, neighbourhood, street and watercourse (Data tab) to cross-check them with urban planning.

For residents

  • If you live on a ground floor or have a garage next to a watercourse, have a plan: where to go upstairs, what to switch off and how to hear about warnings.
  • Keep the strip around your house clear of dry vegetation and know both ways out of your street.
  • Look up your building: the free report gives its level for each hazard, and the Climate Note gives the full detail.
