This dataset shows segments of the Census Bureau's TIGER/Line (2023) roadways exposed to future flooding from sea level rise (SLR). This dataset was created for the 2025 update of the Sea Level Scenario Sketch Planning Tool. The purpose of the Sea Level Scenario Sketch Planning Tool is to help identify transportation infrastructure vulnerable to current and future flood risks. The tool analyzes and visualizes current flood risks (100-year and 500-year floodplains and hurricane storm surge zones) as well as future flood risks using 2022 SLR scenarios from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The Tool includes a map viewer to visualize vulnerable infrastructure to flooding and GIS data layers available for download: https://sls.geoplan.ufl.edu/) |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This dataset shows segments of the Census Bureau's TIGER/Line (2023) roadways exposed to future flooding from sea level rise (SLR). Roads were analyzed for exposure to future flooding under twenty SLR scenarios (every half-foot of SLR, from 0.5-feet to 10-feet of SLR above mean higher high water). The individual features in this dataset represent areas along the roadways exposed to SLR flooding. The road segments are sourced from the U.S. Census Bureau's TIGER/Line data (All Lines County-based Shapefiles) this dataset is from December 5th, 2023.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Please Note: TIGER Roads segments classified as ramps were not included in the flood analysis. Elevated road segments, such as ramps, are often incorrectly identified as flooded. This is because the inundation models were created using a bare earth model DEM, which represents ground elevations. In cases of elevated roads, the DEM reports the land under the roadway and not the road surface. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
