Hi Res Brisbane Flood Map.

There is a Hi Res Flood Map on line, shot from a plane with a 2cm resolution last Thursday, instead of 10cm as seen in google maps. If you search for Victoria Street Fairfield, that's where I went Saturday afternoon after work when the cheese and kisses saw our best mans wife breaking down on TV, after being allowed back to their house for the first time.

The whole area is a muddy disaster and stinks. My heart goes out to anyone effected.

He tells me they wouldn't sell them flood insurance and the Goverment assistance is means tested to a combined max income of $900 gross/week or about $47K/year. His house alone has about $50K damage but they got all major appliances, bedding and furniture out beforehand.
