The FIRM is the basis for floodplain management, mitigation, and insurance activities for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Insurance applications include enforcement of the mandatory purchase requirement of the Flood Disaster Protection Act, which "... requires the purchase of flood insurance by property owners who are being assisted by Federal programs or by Federally supervised, regulated or insured agencies or institutions in the acquisition or improvement of land facilities located or to be located in identified areas having special flood hazards," Section 2 (b) (4) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. In addition to the identification of Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), the risk zones shown on the FIRMs are the basis for the establishment of premium rates for flood coverage offered through the NFIP. The DFIRM Database presents the flood risk information depicted on the FIRM in a digital format suitable for use in electronic mapping applications. The DFIRM database is a subset of the Digital FIS database that serves to archive the information collected during the FIS. The Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) Database depicts flood risk information and supporting
data used to develop the risk data. The primary risk classifications used are the 1-percent-annual-chance
flood event, the 0.2-percent-annual-chance flood event, and areas of minimal flood risk. The DFIRM
Database is derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs), previously published Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRMs), flood hazard analyses performed in support of the FISs and FIRMs, and new mapping data,
where available. The FISs and FIRMs are published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The file is georeferenced to earth's surface using the UTM projection and coordinate system.The
specifications for the horizontal control of DFIRM data files are consistent with those required for
mapping at a scale of 1:12,000.

This data set represents the extent, status, and location of National Wetland Inventory wetland mapping projects for NWI Version 2, Surface Waters and Wetlands. Each project polygon contains information on the type and date of imagery used to map the wetlands and a link to a document about specific mapping techniques and habitat information for that project. Some polygons have been updated in 2017 others not for quite some time. The user need to check the date of each wetland polygon for update years.
This data set represents the extent, approximate location and type of wetlands and deepwater habitats in the conterminous United States. These data delineate the areal extent of wetlands and surface waters as defined by Cowardin et al. (1979).
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and near shore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.
By policy, the Service also excludes certain types of "farmed wetlands" as may be defined by the Food Security Act or that do not coincide with the Cowardin et al. definition. Contact the Service's Regional Wetland Coordinator for additional information on what types of farmed wetlands are included on wetland maps.

The 3D Hydrography Program (3DHP) data is an integrated, National, 3D-enabled hydrologic dataset derived from the USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) data. For areas where Elevation-derived Hydrography (EDH) has not yet been collected, 3DHP data is supplemented by hydrologic vector data from the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). As further EDH data is collected, it will replace the NHD data in those areas. 3DHP data ingested from EDH sources includes ‘value added’ catchments and flowline network derivative attributes. All the data is open and non-proprietary. However, users should be aware that temporal changes may have occurred since this dataset was collected and that some parts of this data may no longer represent actual surface conditions. Users should not use this data for critical applications without a full awareness of its limitations. This dataset is not intended to be used for site-specific regulatory determinations. 3DHP datasets include a three-dimensional (3D) hydrography network generated from, and integrated with, elevation data from the 3DEP to better represent stream gradients and channel conditions, along with waterbodies, hydrologic units, hydrologically enhanced elevation and other surfaces, and more consistent and accurate attributes. This product is new in federal fiscal year 2025 (FY25), and consists only of vector data in a series of feature classes. The product represents the 3DHP dataset and the schema in which it is contained as of September 30, 2024 Future Annual Staged Product releases will reflect the schema at the time the product is generated and include more EDH-sourced data holdings.

This map layer contains the shallowest principal aquifers of the
conterminous United States, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands, portrayed as polygons. The map layer was developed as part of
the effort to produce the maps published at 1:2,500,000 in the printed
series "Ground Water Atlas of the United States". The published maps
contain base and cultural features not included in these data. This is a
replacement for the July 1998 map layer called Principal Aquifers of the
48 Conterminous United States.
