This App includes 3,141 summary records by U.S. County for all Federal disaster declarations between 1964 and 2013. The initial map display shows the All Incidents later, but there are 12 Additional layers users can display showing the county declaration summary data by Incident Type (Fire, Flood, Tornado, etc...]. Click on an disaster declaration highlighted on the map and a custom pop-up attribute display will show you the disaster declaration information and census population estimates for reference. This App also includes a number of map tools to help visualize and analyze the data. NSGIC Data Citation:This project uses existing FEMA data resources that are the authoritative sources of information on this topic, including geospatial data files and open data APIs that were used to access available FEMA Federally-declared Natural Disaster data in the United States available from 1964 to 2014 (through 2013).To support our mapping needs, NSGIC downloaded a snapshot of FEMA data and published our own data Service Definitions and Feature Layers on NSGIC’s ArcGIS Online Mapping Platform to create the unfiltered Feature Layer Services we needed to support our mapping needs of the FEMA Federally Declared Disaster data.Note: These original data sources reflect a variety of inconsistencies and completeness is data collection, as well as changing definitions and priorities in FEMA’s disaster declaration information collection since record-keeping began in 1964. The original data was not modified.To publish the new Feature Layers on ArcGIS Online, NSGIC joined the FEMA Natural Disaster data with an Esri US County polygon shapefile with county population and demographic attributes from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.

A system is identified by constructing logical boundaries around a set of processes, communications, storage, and related resources. The elements within these boundaries constitute a single system requiring a security plan. Each element of the system must (1) be under the same direct management control, (2) have the same function or mission objective, (3) have essentially the same operating characteristics and security needs, and (4) reside in the same general operating environment. This service produces a list of FISMA Systems that belong to FEMA.

The dataset is composed of Registration Intake and Individuals and Households Program (IHP) Information from the Individual Assistance (IA) reporting authority where registration is valid.This dataset contains aggregated non-PII data by generated FEMA's ECIM (Enterprise Coordination & Information Management) Reporting team to share data on registrations and Individuals and Households Program (IHP) for Hurricane Sandy segmented by city for the state of New Jersey AND New York where registration is valid.

This dataset is flattened and multicounty communities are split by county lines. Flattened means that there are no overlaps; larger shapes like counties are punched out or clipped where smaller communities are contained within them. This allows for choropleth shading and other mapping techniques such as calculating unincorporated county land area. Multicounty cities like Houston are split by county lines, allowing easier county summarization and alignment with certain NFIP statistics. This layer is derived from Census, State of Maine, and National Flood Hazard Layer political boundaries.rnrnThe Community Layer datasets contain geospatial community boundaries associated with Census and NFIP data.

This dataset provides information on structures that have had multiple National Flood Insurance (NFIP) claims across the history of the program. The data contains NFIP-insured structures that fall within the four categories of Repetitive Loss and Severe Repetitive Loss that FEMA tracks. Definitions of these categories are provided in the field descriptions. There are also fields to show whether a structure is currently NFIP-insured, has been mitigated, and other characteristics. The data includes properties that have since been mitigated or demolished and may no longer considered to be in any of the listed categories.rnLocation information has been redacted to protect personal privacy. Location information is derived from reported address, geocoding of that address, and reported NFIP community. Because NFIP insurance claims data spans the history of the NFIP, many of the structures have poor address information resulting in poor or missing coordinates and additional _location fields that rely on those coordinates. An effort has been made to fill in missing data and resolve conflicts between state, county, community, and census block group. Because of this effort, emstatistics derived from this data may differ from those reported elsewhere by FEMA or others/em.rnThere is a lot of interest in this data as it touches many program areas of the NFIP and serves as an indicator of flood risk and mitigation need.rnrnFEMA's terms and conditions and citation requirements for datasets (API usage or file downloads) can be found on the OpenFEMA Terms and Conditions page: https://www.fema.gov/about/openfema/terms-conditions.rnrnFor answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about the OpenFEMA program, API, and publicly available datasets, please visit: https://www.fema.gov/about/openfema/faq.rnrnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk at FEMA-News-Desk@fema.dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.
