Abstract:
1. A computer implemented method of automatically calculating a flood risk score wherein said flood risk score represents a likelihood of a property point being flooded, comprising: determining by a data processor of a computer system a flood risk zone associated with the property point; determining by the data processor of the computer system hydrology information associated with the property point; determining by the data processor of the computer system a ground elevation associated with the property point; determining by the data processor of the computer system a flood elevation associated with the property point by analyzing the hydrology information; determining by the data processor of the computer system a variance between the ground elevation and the flood elevation; and automatically calculating by the data processor of the computer system a flood risk score based at least in part on the flood risk zone, the variance, and the hydrology information.
