48240 cscFloodComposite Data Set Published / External 37236 ParentRecords Project In Work 2013 This is a map service for the Coastal Flood Hazard Composite dataset. This dataset was created by combining hazard zones from the following datasets: FEMA V zones, FEMA A zones, FEMA shaded X zones, NOAA OCM Flood Frequency zones, NOAA OCM potential sea level rise inundation of 3 ft above current Mean Higher High Water (MHHW), and SLOSH MOMs for category 3 hurricanes. This dataset was created to support the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's Coastal Flood Exposure Mapper application. The purpose of the online mapping tool is to provide coastal managers, planners, and stakeholders a preliminary look at exposures to coastal flooding hazards. The Mapper is a screening-level tool that uses nationally consistent data sets and analyses. Data and maps provided can be used at several scales to help communities initiate resilience planning efforts. Currently the extent of this dataset covers U. S. coastal areas along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts. This is a cached map service. Tiles have been cached down to Level ID 15 (1:18,055). The purpose of this dataset is to depict areas most prone to coastal flood hazards by representing the number of coastal flood hazard zones that overlay an area. This composite flood hazard layer displays areas of intersection between the following flood hazard zones: FEMA V zones, FEMA A zones, FEMA shaded X zones, NOAA OCM Flood Frequency zones, NOAA OCM potential sea level rise inundation of 3 ft above current Mean Higher High Water (MHHW), and SLOSH MOMs for category 3 hurricanes. 10856 Theme ISO 19115 Topic Category environment Spatial Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > GULF OF AMERICA Theme Hurricanes Theme Shoreline Theme flooding Theme inundation Theme sea level rise Spatial Atlantic coastal counties Spatial Gulf of Mexico Spatial Gulf of Mexico coastal counties Spatial United States Office for Coastal Management Charleston SC Data Set Irregular Any conclusions drawn from the analysis of this information are not the responsibility of the Office for Coastal Management or its partners.
