FEMA Flood Risk Database for Philadelphia (GeoTIFFs)

This dataset is an input to several tutorials for the software package an UNcertain Structure and Fragility Ensemble (UNSAFE) framework for property-level flood risk esimation. We upload this dataset as this persistent and unique link so that the UNSAFE examples are easier to follow, as the original data is only available at a URL. This dataset was obtained in April, 2024 on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center: Welcome landing page. We clicked on Search All Products (highlighted in blue just below "Looking for more than just a current flood map?" and searched for Product ID FRD_02040202_PA_GeoTIFFs. Alternatively, one can search under "Jurisdiction" for PENNSYLVANIA -> PHILADELPHIA COUNTY -> PHILADELPHIA COUNTY ALL JURISDICTIONS and then click "Search." As of April of 2024 the corresponding directories were named "Effective Products," "Preliminary Products," "Pending Product," "Historic Products," and "Flood Risk Products." We clicked on Flood Risk Products -> Flood Risk Database and then download the GeoTIFFs file. This dataset was posted on 08/01/2016 and is 2190MB.
