The FIRM is the basis for floodplain management, mitigation, and insurance activities for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Insurance applications include enforcement of the mandatory purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act, which "... requires the purchase of flood insurance by property owners who are being assisted by Federal programs or by Federally supervised, regulated or insured agencies or institutions in the aquisition or improvement of land facilities located or to be located in indentified areas having special flood hazards,'' Section 2 (b) (4) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP." The DFIRM Database presents the flood risk information depicted on the FIRM in a digital format suitable for use in electronic mapping applications. The DFIRM database is a subset of the Digital FIS database that serves to archive the information collected during the FIS. |

<p style='background:white;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif; color:#4C4C4C;'>Cross Sections are
required for any Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map database where cross sections
are shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). Normally any FIRM that has
associated flood profiles has cross sections. The corresponding attribute table
contains information about cross section lines. A spatial file with locational
information also corresponds with this data table. These lines represent the
locations of channel surveys performed for input into the hydraulic model used
to calculate flood elevations. These locations are also shown on the Flood
Profiles in the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report and can be used to cross
reference the Flood Profiles to the planimetric depiction of the flood hazards.
All cross sections for which a spatial location is available should be included
in this table. The spatial elements representing cross sections are lines
generally extending from outside the floodplain, across the entire floodplain
and out the other side. Each cross section should be represented by a single
line feature without the hexagons shown on each end on the hardcopy map. The
location and shape of the lines should depict as accurately as possible the
position of the cross section used. This is a modified Standard DFIRM Database
table that includes Standard DFIRM Database items and Enhanced Database items.
All items after SOURCE_CIT are Enhanced. The Enhanced DFIRM Database must
contain all modeled cross sections, whether they are printed on the FIRM or
not.<o:p></o:p></span></p> |

Acknowledgement of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) as the
source of the digital data must be cited on any graphic reproduction of the
data. The hardcopy FIRM and DFIRM and the accompanying FISs are the official
designation of SFHAs and Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) for the NFIP. For the
purposes of the NFIP, changes to the flood risk information published by FEMA
may only be performed by FEMA and through the mechanisms established in the NFIP
regulations (44 CFR Parts 59-78). These digital data are produced in
conjunction with the hardcopy FIRMs and generally match the hardcopy map
exactly. However the hardcopy flood maps and flood profiles are the
authoritative documents for the NFIP. Acknowledgement of FEMA would be
appreciated in products derived from these data. DATA DISCLAIMER The Department
of Natural Resources provides these geographic data "as is" and the
user accepts the data "as is", and assumes all risks associated with
its use. The State believes the data to be accurate, but cannot and does not
warranty it to be so. The State further makes no warranties, either expressed
or implied as to any other matter whatsoever, including, without limitation,
the condition of any product, or its fitness for any particular purpose. The
burden for determining fitness for use lies entirely with the user. Although
these data have been processed successfully using the data processing
technology of the State, no warranty, expressed or implied, is made by the
State regarding any capability to use these data on any other system, nor does
the fact of distribution constitute or imply any such warranty. In no event
shall the State have any liability whatsoever for payment of any consequential,
incidental, indirect, special, or tort damages of any kind, including, but not
limited to, any loss of profits arising out of or reliance on the geographic
data or arising out of the delivery, installation, operation, or support by the
State.<o:p></o:p></p> |
