Using the City of High Point Internet Mapping Service, anyone in the city can zoom into their neighborhood and display FEMA Flood Zones. By identifying the flood zone, one can determine if they are in the 100 or 500 year floodplain. Users must understand that the flood maps were derived from national data sources at very small map scales. Thus, actual flood zone boundaries can only be determined through approved site surveys.
