A polygon feature class of the county flood criteria boundaries within Miami-Dade County. The purpose of the Miami-Dade County Flood Criteria Map is to determine the minimum ground surface elevation of developed properties, crown/grade of roads, and secondary canal banks based on a 10-year, 24-hour storm event, 2060 scenario with SLR, and the minimum top elevation of seawalls, unless higher elevations are required by other regulatory applicable standards.Available for review and comment October 22, 2021 through December 22, 2021.Updated: Every 10 yrs The data was created using: Projected Coordinate System: WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_SphereProjection: Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere

A polygon feature class that depicts the inundation limits representing flood risk information and supporting 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 FIRM Database is derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs), previously published 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 FEMA. The FIRM is the basis for floodplain management, mitigation, and insurance activities for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Insurance applications include enforcement of the mandatory purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act, which "... requires the purchase of flood insurance by property owners who are being assisted by Federal programs or by Federally supervised, regulated or insured agencies or institutions in the acquisition or improvement of land facilities located or to be located in identified areas having special flood hazards, " Section 2 (b) (4) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP. The FIRM Database presents the flood risk information depicted on the FIRM in a digital format suitable for use in electronic mapping applications. The FIRM Database serves to archive the information collected during the Flood Risk Project.

A polygon feature class of the Coastal A Zone boundaries. Developed to aid the spatial location of the Coastal A Zones in Miami-Dade County for permitting purposes. Based on the Miami-Dade County Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM), effective September 11, 2009 published by FEMA and the ASCE 24 guidelines. 'Coastal A� Zone according to FEMA, is the area landward of a V Zone or landward of an open coast without mapped V Zones. In a coastal A Zone, the principal source of flooding will be astronomical tides, storm surges, seiches or tsunamis and not riverine flooding. During base flood conditions, the potential for breaking wave heights between 1.5 feet and 3.0 ft, will exist.Updated: Not Planned The data was created using: Projected Coordinate System: WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_SphereProjection: Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere

These data were created as part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's efforts to create an online mapping viewer called the Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer. It depicts potential sea level rise and its associated impacts on the nation's coastal areas. The purpose of the mapping viewer is to provide coastal managers and scientists with a preliminary look at sea level rise and coastal flooding impacts. The viewer is a screening-level tool that uses nationally consistent data sets and analyses. Data and maps provided can be used at several scales to help gauge trends and prioritize actions for different scenarios. The Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer may be accessed at: https://coast.noaa.gov/slr. This metadata record describes the Florida Keys digital elevation model (DEM), which is a part of a series of DEMs produced for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer described above. This DEM includes the best available lidar known to exist at the time of DEM creation that met project specifications. This DEM includes data for Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties. The DEM was produced from the following lidar data sets: 1. 2015 Miami-Dade County, Florida Lidar 2. 2015 NOAA NGS Topobathy Lidar: Dry Tortugas 3. 2018 - 2019 NOAA NGS Topobathy Lidar Hurricane Irma: Miami to Marquesas Key, FL The DEM is referenced vertically to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) with vertical units of meters and horizontally to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). The resolution of the DEM is approximately 3 meters.
