Recently many areas of our state completed the process of updating the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs).
These maps show the areas of potential flooding based on the 1-percent chance storm event.
This has been known in the past as the 100 year flood and is also known as the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA).
When you get the amount of rain comprising the 1-percent storm the flood water will come to a certain elevation near your home, known as the Base Flood Elevation (BFE).
FEMA is required to assess its flood hazard map inventory at least once every 5 years.

Much like any other type of survey, a topographic survey, or topo survey for short, is done to locate natural and man-made features on a particular parcel of land.
This is sometimes called planimetric features or things you can see from a plan view as if you were hovering over the site.
The topo survey usually also includes any man-made underground features, like utility lines.
The survey will also show above ground improvements like buildings, utility poles, retaining walls, etc.
The elevation or differences in elevation on the surface is usually shown as contours.
