Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The predecessor shapefile for MEDICAL_CARE_FACILITIES_MHMP_IN.SHP was produced by The Polis Center, as part of an essential facilities database for several DMA2000 Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning (MHMP) projects to assist communities in preparing hazard mitigation planning document and procedures. The following is excerpted from metadata supplied by The Polis Center for the source shapefile named "HZCAREFLTY.SHP":"This data is used to estimate the damage (and resulting loss of functionality) associated with emergency response facilities for a given flood, hurricane, and/or earthquake scenario. By evaluating this information, the Hazus user can determine whether the emergency response capabilities of the region are likely to be overwhelmed by the flood, hurricane, and/or earthquake scenario." </SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>MEDICAL_CARE_FACILITIES_MHMP_IN.SHP is a point shapefile that shows medical care facilities in Indiana. MEDICAL_CARE_FACILITIES_MHMP_IN.SHP was derived from the shapefile named "HZCAREFLTY.SHP," which was provided to Indiana Geological Survey personnel by personnel of The Polis Center. This data set was derived by The Polis Center as part of several "DMA2000 Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning" (MHMP) projects, from data of the "Hazards U.S. Multi-Hazards" (Hazus-MH MR1, v 1.1) program (data from 2003) developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This data set is more complete in many counties in Indiana than the data set for essential facilities provided by FEMA with the Hazus-MH software.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
