what is a floodplain if a river tends to flood


What is a floodplain?

If a river tends to flood, the most practical solution might be to designate a more or less flat area along the river as the "floodplain". This Area is permitted to flood and therefore save other, more valuable areas from flooding. Obviously, no single buildings should be erected on the floodplain and it is generally unsuitable for farming, too.
