As more communities are remapped using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), FEMA will make GIS floodplain maps available through the FEMA Flood Map Store mentioned above. Until this map modernization effort is closer to completion, the GIS compatible floodplain datasets should be obtained from the FEMA Flood Map Store. Once this remapping effort is closer to completion our office will begin to incorporate the ability to download GIS compatible files from this site. For the present, our office can photocopy sections of FEMA floodplain maps & make them available for pick-up or by surface mail.
