<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Polygon areas representing the 2007 flood hazard areas for Chatham County, NC. These data were collected and derived by the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Program (www.ncfloodmaps.com) as part of its effort to modernize FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) statewide. The North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Program was established through a Cooperating Technical State (CTS) agreement with FEMA in response to the extensive damage caused by Hurricane Floyd in 1999. MapFldHazAr is a GIS shapefile representing the area within the flood mapping boundaries defined by the engineering models for the 100 year, 500 year and floodway. The MapFldHazAr spatial table contains information about the flood hazard within the study area. These zones are used by FEMA to designate the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), identify areas of coastal high hazard flooding, and for insurance rating purposes. These data are the flood hazard areas that are or will be depicted on the FIRM.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

However, as with all other geospatial datasets, users must take into consideration the consequences of using the data for specific applications, business processes, decisions, and map display. For example, surface conditions may have changed in some areas since the initial data was captured. A full metadata record is provided to help the user understand the date, map scale and accuracy standard applied in the collection and data development process. The data should not be used without full review and comprehension of the metadata. Acknowledgement of the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Program is appreciated when using the data set. Data further derived from this data set should be fully documented using the federal metadata standard and listed via the NC Geospatial Data Clearinghouse.</SPAN></P></DIV> |
