. Flood databases of high spatio-temporal resolution are anecessary tool for proper spatial planning, especially in areas with highlevels of exposure and danger to floods. This study presents the preliminaryresults of the Spanish Mediterranean Coastal Flood (SMC-Flood) database covering themunicipalities in this region. This database collects information on floodcases that occurred between 1960 and 2015 by systematically consulting thedigital archives of the main newspapers in the study area. The search forflood information was conducted by means of using links between municipalitynames and seven keywords that correspond to the most common ways of referring toa situation that is likely to describe a flood in Spain. This methodologyhas enabled the reconstruction of 3008 flood cases at a municipal scale withdaily resolution while gathering information on the types of damage,intensity, severity and area affected. The spatio-temporal analysis of thedata reveals hotspots where flood cases are especially intense and damagingwhen compared to highly developed areas where the frequency of flood casesis very high. This situation is especially worrying insofar as we havedetected a growing trend in the frequency and area affected by flood cases.However, one positive aspect is that the intensity and severity of floodcases follows a falling trend. The main novelty lies in the fact that thehigh-resolution spatial analysis has made it possible to detect a clearlatitudinal gradient of growing intensity and severity in a north–southdirection. This pattern calls for new actions by the coastal municipalauthorities of southern Spain for adaptation to a more complex floodscenario.
