Abstract
On-going development and new floodplain protection regulations require communities to take a more active role in managing floodplain activities. More accurate floodplain maps provide better guidance to the development community, better protection from flood damages for homeowners, and less flooding risk for roadways that cross streams. To support such efforts, innovative techniques and tools are available to address floodplain issues faster, more efficiently and with greater value to the community.
