Susquehanna River Basin: Inundation Mapping Viewer
Inundated with Accessibility
Built around an ArcGIS server, the Susquehanna Inundation Mapping Viewer (SIMV) is a web-based tool that displays hazard information on an easy-to-use Google Map interface that allows users to see potential flood risks to personal property.
Inundation data developed using high-resolution LiDAR technology reveals a variety of flooding scenarios at multiple forecast points along the river

The Susquehanna River Basin Commission tasked us with developing a custom inundation mapping viewer that was publicly accessible as a means to communicate flood hazards to reduce flood losses and increase awareness. We delivered a powerful decision-making tool for emergency managers and the general public. The web-based application provides personalized risk reports for any location affected by flooding and allows a user to see the potential risk to property, structures, or landmarks while also viewing the latest observed and predicted river conditions.
