Item Information

snippet: This table includes the Median DV values for the index and the 500-Year polygons.
summary: This table includes the Median DV values for the index and the 500-Year polygons.
accessInformation: This data was generated by AtkinsRéalis, using the Exposed Building Data and Flood Quilt (2024) provided by Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) Regional Flood Planning Group (RFPG). The Median DV Category was developed by WERC, using the Base Level Engineering (BLE) models, the FEMA Flood Severity Categories, TWDB RFPG Exposed Building Data, and the TWDB RFPG Flood Quilt (2024).

This data is only available within Bexar, Travis, and Williamson counties, where the flood severity category may range from 0 to 5, where 5 represents extreme flood severity. Outside of these counties, pixels will have the default value of NULL.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
licenseInfo: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>The FFRA is provided for the 30-county area at a spatial resolution of 1-kilometer by 1-kilometer for better computational efficiency as well as to align with input data with the coarsest resolution among those that were used in this study. In addition, the selection of the 1-kilometer by 1-kilometer pixel grid for processing FFRA can avoid confusion about the intent of the product – a finer resolution may give a false impression about the precision or intent of this study. This study is not intended to site sirens as part of outdoor warning siren systems but to identify flash flood-prone areas that warrant sirens. FFRA with a resolution of 1x1 kilometer can adequately serve as foundational information for identifying flash flood-prone areas that warrant sirens given the audible radius for outdoor warning sirens typically ranging from approximately 1 to 2 miles.</SPAN></P></DIV>
