Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map Database for Brazos County, TX, USA

The Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) Database depicts flood risk information and supporting data used to develop the risk data. The primary risk classifications used are the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event, the 0.2-percent-annual- chance flood event, and areas of minimal flood risk. The DFIRM Database is derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs), previously published Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), flood hazard analyses performed in support of the FISs and FIRMs, and new mapping data, where available. The FISs and FIRMs are published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This file is georeferenced to the earth's surface using the Lambert Conformal Conic projection and the Texas State Plane NAD83 Central Zone coordinate system, projection and coordinate system. The specifications for the horizontal control of DFIRM data files are consistent with those required for mapping at a scale of 1:12,000. The Vertical Datum of this data set is North American Vertical Datum 1988 (NAVD88). The specifications for the vertical control of DFIRM data files are consistent with those required for mapping at a vertical accuracy of 2.4 feet or better.
