Hazard Mitigation Resources

Mapping & GIS

Mapping hazard prone areas shows the proximity to populations and structures to raise awareness and identify potential losses.   The NKADD maintains a GIS inventory that includes pertinent digital maps and data from state and national sources including:

• FEMA Q3 Floodplain Maps (Digitized FIRM Maps) 
  
• USGS Elevation & Slope Maps (DEM’s & DRG’s)
  
• USGS & KGS Seismic Potential Maps
  
• USGS Landslide Prone Geology
  
• High Wind Areas
  
• Hazard Loss Estimation Modeling (HAZUS)
