Floodplain Cross Sections
Location and attributes for cross section lines in the area covered by the FIRM. This layer must contain all cross sections in a model, not just the lettered cross sections. A line developed from topographic information across a floodplain at which a computation of flood flow has been made to establish a potential flood elevation. Cross sections are shown on the Flood Boundary Floodway Map, Flood Insurance Rate Map, and/or Flood Profiles of a Flood Insurance Study.
