This site contained several maps by location for determining the flood rating system for a particular area within a region. This source was used to designate the flood rating for question 10.13 on the American Alliance for Museum?s (AAM?s) General Facilities Report. This source was not easy to use as the interface did not allow one to easily identify or zoom in on the areas in question, but it was the only source available for providing this rating.
