National Flood Mitigation Data Collection Tool and RLP viewer

Description

"The National Flood Mitigation Data Collection Tool (National Tool or NT) was developed for Nationwide use to gather information about floodprone structures in order to evaluate appropriate long-term mitigation measures. Data fields within the NT require information from a variety of sources, including: NFIP policy information; community building, tax, and historical flood records; and field reconnaissance. Having detailed data helps to create a clearer picture of the property and its flood risk issues. The Repetitive Loss Property (RLP) Viewer 2.0 is a standalone application capable of connecting to any standard NT database in Access format (.MDB) that uses GIS to display point features representing floodprone properties over base map data such as roads, streams, county and community boundaries, and Q3 flood maps. New property point shape files can be produced by reading latitude and longitude coordinates stored inside the NT Access file for each location"--Container.
