This site provides access to download an ArcGIS geodatabase or shapefiles for the 2017 Texas Address Database, compiled by the Center for Water and the Environment (CWE) at the University of Texas at Austin, with guidance and funding from the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM). These addresses are used by TDEM to help anticipate potential impacts of serious weather and flooding events statewide. This is part of the Texas Water Model (TWM), a project to adapt the NOAA National Water Model [1] for use in Texas public safety. This database was compiled over the period from June 2016 to December 2017. A number of gaps remain (towns and cities missing address points), see Address Database Gaps spreadsheet below [4]. Additional datasets include administrative boundaries for Texas counties (including Federal and State disaster-declarations), Councils of Government, and Texas Dept of Public Safety Regions. An Esri ArcGIS Story Map [5] web app provides an interactive map-based portal to explore and access these data layers for download.

The address points in this database include their "height above nearest drainage" (HAND) as attributes in meters and feet. HAND is an elevation model developed through processing by the TauDEM method [2], built on USGS National Elevation Data (NED) with 10m horizontal resolution. The HAND elevation data and 10m NED for the continental United States are available for download from the Texas Advanced Computational Center (TACC) [3].

The complete statewide dataset contains about 9.28 million address points representing a population of about 28 million. The total file size is about 5GB in shapefile format. For better download performance, the shapefile version of this data is divided into 5 regions, based on groupings of major watersheds identified by their hydrologic unit codes (HUC). These are zipped by region, with no zipfile greater than 120mb: - North Tx: HUC1108-1114 (0.52 million address points) - DFW-East Tx: HUC1201-1203 (3.06 million address points) - Houston-SE Tx: HUC1204 (1.84 million address points) - Central Tx: HUC1205-1210 (2.96 million address points) - Rio Grande-SW Tx: HUC2111-1309 (2.96 million address points)

Additional state and county boundaries are included (Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas), as well as disaster-declaration status.

Compilation notes: The Texas Commission for State Emergency Communications (CSEC) provided the first 3 million address points received, in a single batch representing 213 of Texas' 254 counties. The remaining 41 counties were primarily urban areas comprising about 6.28 million addresses (totaling about 9.28 million addresses statewide). We reached the GIS data providers for these areas (see Contributors list below) through these emergency communications networks: Texas 9-1-1 Alliance, the Texas Emergency GIS Response Team (EGRT), and the Texas GIS 9-1-1 User Group. The address data was typically organized in groupings of counties called Councils of Governments (COG) or Regional Planning Commissions (RPC) or Development Councils (DC). Every county in Texas belongs to a COG, RPC or DC. We reconciled all counties' addresses to a common, very simple schema, and merged into a single geodatabase.

November 2023 updates: In 2019, TNRIS took over maintenance of the Texas Address Database, which is now a StratMap program updated annually [6]. In 2023, TNRIS also changed its name to the Texas Geographic Information Office (TxGIO). The datasets available for download below are not being updated, but are current as of the time of Hurricane Harvey.

Hurricane Harvey made landfall near Rockport, Texas on August 25 as a category 4 hurricane with wind gusts exceeding 150 miles per hour. As Harvey moved inland the forward motion of the storm slowed down and produced tremendous rainfall amounts to southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana. Historic flooding occurred in Texas and Louisiana as a result of the widespread, heavy rainfall over an 8-day period in Louisiana in August and September 2017. Following the storm event, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) hydrographers recovered and documented 2,123 high-water marks in Texas, noting location and height of the water above land surface. Many of these high-water marks were used to create flood-inundation maps for selected communities of Texas that experienced flooding in August and September, 2017. The mapped area boundary, flood inundation extents, depth rasters, and coastal surge layer were created to provide an estimated extent of flood inundation in Coastal basins including East and West Matagorda Bay Subbasins, East and West San Antonio Bay Subbasins, and Aransas Bay Subbasin, Texas. The mapped area of the Coastal basins were separated into three sections based on the availability and location of high-water marks. The maps of the eastern part of the East Matagorda Bay Subbasin include a 17-mi reach of Peyton Creek and a 16-mi reach of Big Boggy Creek, and flood-inundation map for 6-mi reach of Little Boggy Creek in Matagorda County. The maps of the western part of East Matagorda Bay Subbasin include a 13.5-mi reach of West Carancahua Creek, 14.5-mi reach of East Carancahua Creek, and 9.6-mi reach of Keller Creek within Matagorda, Jackson, and Calhoun Counties. The maps of the middle part of the East Matagorda Bay Subbasin are for a 21-mi reach of the Tres Palacios River within Matagorda County. These geospatial data include the following items: 1. bnd_emb1, bnd_emb2, and bnd_tres_palacios; shapefiles containing the polygon showing the mapped area boundary for the Coastal basins flood maps, 2. hwm_emb_1, hwm_emb2, and hwm_tres_palacios; shapefiles containing high-water mark points used for inundation maps, 3. polygon_emb1, polygon_emb_2, and polygon_tres_palacios; shapefiles containing mapped extent of flood inundation for the Coastal basins, derived from the water-surface elevation surveyed at high-water marks, 4. depth_emb1, depth_emb2, and depth_tres; raster files for the flood depths derived from the water-surface elevation surveyed at high-water marks, and 5. coastal_surge.lyr; a layer file generated from the depth raster depicting water height above ground recorded at the high-water marks. The upstream and downstream mapped area extent is limited to the upstream-most and downstream-most high-water mark locations. In areas of uncertainty of flood extent, the mapped area boundary is lined up with the flood inundation polygon extent. The mapped area boundary polygon was used to extract the final flood inundation polygon and depth raster from the water-surface elevation raster file. Depth raster files were created using the "Topo to Raster" tool in ArcMap (ESRI, 2012). The HWM elevation data from the USGS Short-tern Network (STN) was used to create the flood water-surface raster file (U.S. Geological Survey [USGS], 2018, Short-Term Network Data Portal: USGS flood information web page, accessed February 13, 2018, at https://water.usgs.gov/floods/FEV.). The water-surface raster was the basis for the creation of the final flood inundation polygon and depth layer to support the development of flood inundation map for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) response and recovery operations.

The mapped area boundary, flood inundation extents, and depth rasters were created to provide an estimated extent of flood inundation along the San Bernard River within counties of Colorado, Wharton, Austin, Fort Bend, and Brazoria, Texas. The mapped area of the Sabine Basin was separated into three sections due to the availability and location of high-water marks; upper, middle, and lower. The upper reach includes 20-mi of the San Bernard River, extending from Interstate 10 near Sealy, Texas on the upstream end continuing downstream through the Attwater Prairie National Wildlife Refuge in Colorado County, Texas. The middle reach includes 46-mi of the San Bernard River, extending from Wallis, Texas in Austin County downstream through East Bernard, Texas in Wharton County and Kendleton, Texas in Fort Bend County. The lower reach includes 33-mi of the San Bernard River; in this reach, the San Bernard River flows past Sweeny and Brazoria, Texas in Brazoria County; the downstream extent terminates at the San Bernard National Wildlife Refuge. These geospatial data include the following items: 1. bnd_sanbernard_upper, bnd_sanbernard_middle, and bnd_sanbernard_lower; shapefiles containing the polygon showing the mapped area boundary for the upper, middle, and lower San Bernard River flood maps, 2. hwm_sanbernard_upper, hwm_sanbernard_middle, and hwm_sanbernard_lower; shapefiles containing high-water mark points used for inundation maps, 3. polygon_ sanbernard_upper, polygon_sanbernard_middle, and polygon_sanbernard_lower; shapefiles containing mapped extent of flood inundation for the upper, middle, and lower mapped sections of the San Bernard River, derived from the water-surface elevation surveyed at high-water marks, and 4. depth_sb_up, depth_sb_mid, and depth_sb_low; raster files for the flood depths derived from the water-surface elevation surveyed at high-water marks.
