2024年12月10日 · The Flow-following finite-volume Icosahedral Model (FIM) is a global atmospheric forecast model (numerical weather prediction). This page has real-time products from the FIM and information on it.

2023年11月16日 · Mapping (FIM) Services - !NEW! Experimental FIM services are now available for 30% of the U.S. population including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. These services will be expanded to nearly 100% of the U.S. population by 2026.

NOAA has expanded experimental Flood Inundation Mapping (FIM) services from 10% to 30% of the U.S. population. FIM provides near-real-time, high-resolution, street-level visualizations of flood waters and helps forecasters issue more accurate and timely flood watches and warnings.

How are the National Weather Service (NWS) Flood Inundation Maps (FIM) produced? Estimated precipitation and forecasted precipitation are used along with a hydrologic model, to predict streamflow along rivers and streams.

NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory has a strong focus on development and improvement of global earth-system models in collaboration with other US laboratories.

This software uses the Height Above Nearest Drainage (HAND) method to generate Relative Elevation Models (REMs), Synthetic Rating Curves (SRCs), and catchment grids. This repository also includes functionality to generate flood inundation maps (FIMs) and evaluate FIM accuracy. For more information, see the Inundation Mapping Wiki.

The FIM Mapper allows users to explore the full set of inundation maps that shows where flooding would occur given a selected stream condition. Users can also access historical flood information and potential loss estimates based on the severity of the flood.

2024年9月26日 · NOAA has expanded experimental flood inundation mapping (FIM) services from 10% to 30% of the US population. FIM provides near-real-time, high-resolution, street-level visualizations of flood waters and helps forecasters issue more accurate and …

2018年7月16日 · The USGS Flood Inundation Mapping (FIM) Program helps communities protect lives and property by providing tools and information to help them understand their local flood risks and make cost-effective mitigation decisions.

2024年4月15日 · The NWS FIM methods deploy a model agnostic approach to map the inundation with 10-meter horizontal resolution for rivers and streams in the National Hydrography Dataset network. The use of synthetic rating curves and the application of the Height Above Nearest Drainage method allow projection of the water surface elevation in the channel to ...
