Basic Flood Data
First American’s Basic Flood Data incorporates three data elements: FEMA Flood Zone, “In/Out” of Special Hazard Area and proximity to the Special Flood Hazard Area. First American utilizes the industry’s most comprehensive database of digital flood maps that are constantly updated to reflect FEMA’s most recent studies and rigorously reviewed to meet First American’s standards for quality. When Basic Flood Data is combined with CATUM, insurers can more accurately determine whether or not a property is partly or wholly contained in a flood zone.
