This category is for the flood protection structures. Difference between dikes and levees:
- Dikes protect land that would normally be under water from flooding.
Dikes are most often associated with the sea and areas of land below sea level. - Levees protect land that would normally be dry from flooding.
Levees are most often associated with rivers.
