WV Flood Tool
The West Virginia Flood Tool is designed to provide floodplain managers, insurance agents, developers, real estate agents, local planners and citizens with an effective means by which to make informed decisions about the degree of flood risk for a specific area or property. This is NOT the official instrument of a final hazard determination. Remember: if in doubt, it's not out!
Includes the best available flood mapping data from FEMA and other approved sources and incorporates the best available base maps/background and reference layers (aerial photos, roads, elevation contours, addresses, stream names, etc.) from commercial and local data sources.
The WV Flood tool consumes web map services from other state agencies (such as WV DOT roads and WV DEP imagery) and operates on both desktop computers and smart phones.
The WV Flood Tool has three customized map views: Public, Expert, and Risk MAP. >
