5 layers
Floods, inland water and water bodies
The flood hazard maps at three probabilities, the areas of potential significant flood risk and of significant past floods (2024), the water bodies and the drinking-water protection areas. Before building, buying or insuring.
6 layers
Geology, geohazards and forests
Observed landslides, subsidence and collapses, the 1:100,000 geological map of Hungary, the geological hazard map and the forest stands (the last three are waiting for permission).
2 layers
Bathing sites and outings
Designated natural bathing waters with their water quality class, national parks, protected landscape areas, natural monuments and Ramsar sites. For walkers, birdwatchers and lakeside plots on Balaton.

Known gaps, stated plainly
What is not here, and why. These lines come from the app and are removed the day a layer ships.
- The national register of protected natural areas, the national ecological network, the 1:100,000 geological map, the geological hazard map, the inland excess water map and the forest stands are listed but cannot be opened yet: their licences do not yet clearly allow a paid app to show them. We have asked the ministry, SZTFH, Lechner and NÉBIH, and they unlock here the moment it is confirmed.
- Some new layers are listed but cannot be opened yet: their terms do not yet clearly allow a paid app to show them. They unlock here the moment that is confirmed.
- Protected areas, until the national register is released, come from the European Environment Agency's copy. The habitat map, biosphere reserves, cave protection zones and the detailed river flood risk maps have no public map service, and the land registry map and settlement plans need a paid login, so they are not in the app. Species records are not included.
