' PROJECT APPROACH <br />' Colorado whether the benefit from integrating these datasets warrants the system development <br />costs. <br />' During the data inventory process, Riverside will work with the CWCB to determine the <br />requirements for integrating the CWCB Flood Threat Bulletin into the Flood DSS. If the Flood <br />Threat Bulletin is in a GIS format for the 2009 flood season, as was mentioned in the Questions <br />' and Answers related to the RFP, the data integration costs should be low. <br />Deliverables <br />1. Technical memorandum and summary spreadsheet that summarize the data sources <br />evaluated, and make recommendations for the data collection process. <br />4.5 Data Collection <br />^ Goals <br />Collect flood-related data to be used in the Phase I Flood DSS based on the results of the data <br />inventory. <br />Background - <br />For the °Flood DSS prototype development, Riverside collected most of the statewide data from <br />' '" the State and federal a encies or websites. Data for Larimer Count and the Cit of Fort Collins <br />g Y Y <br />were collected by calling local government personnel. For the Phase I Flood DSS, it is estimated <br />' that 75% of the available data can be obtained from the CWCB, with the remainder available <br />from external sources. The objective of the data collection task is to collect statewide data to the <br />extent possible, as well as collect county or local data to the extent that project resources allow. <br />The Riverside Team has experience collecting data from local governments as part of the <br />DFIRM scoping process, as well as experience in Colorado collecting local GIS layers to support <br />' hazard mitigation planning and stormwater utility development. The Riverside Team will draw <br />on this experience and knowledge of Colorado data resources to streamline the acquisition and <br />assembly of all the data components included in the Flood DSS. <br />' 4.5.1 Statewide Data <br />Approach <br />' AMEC will lead the Riverside Team for the data collection task. Several statewide datasets were <br />identified and used in the prototype (Table 4-1). For the Phase I Flood DSS, these data will need <br />to be updated and quality controlled. <br />National Flood Insurance Program Community Status -This public dataset lists the National <br />Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) community participation. It lists the counties and <br />municipalities in Colorado and whether they are .participating in the program. For participating <br />programs, the dataset lists their latest Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) panel, effective date, <br />and status code. <br />' The NFIP community participation dataset is a table .available online. The table included in the <br />prototype will be updated by downloading the new table, reformatting it into a database table, <br />and creating a new join with the city and county layers in the Flood DSS map service. These <br />data will be updated regularly although frequent updates are-not needed. <br />DNR RFP PDA-923 39 R ~ V E R S ~ ~ E <br />
