Access more data in the Layers tab

To access more data within your project, click on the Layers tab in the Project Overview.

Take note of the filters list in the sidebar menu on the left. Foundation Data filter is preselected when Foundation Data has been ordered for this project; otherwise, Utility Density Map is the default.

  • Note that you can filter by sector, sub-sector, and surface object type by clicking the arrow on the right beside "Foundation Data" and checking the boxes for the desired options.

Understanding the data in the Layers tab

The Layers Tab provides valuable insights for your project, such as topographical information and land ownership. Here's a list of data you can filter by:

  • Land Ownership: Select this filter to see a grid of all landowner parcels on the map.

    • Click on each parcel to get more information on the Land Owner, Ownership Type, Address, area, Parcel ID, and Land Use.

  • Topography: Select this filter to see topographical details like elevation.

  • Floodplain: Select this filter to see potential flood hazards.

    • Use the key in the black box, under Flood Hazard Zone, as a visual reference to explain what the different colors and patterns on the map represent. For example, markings on the map illustrated by red stripes represent Regulatory Floodway.

      • Other key items you’ll see include:

        • 1% Annual Chance Flood Hazard

        • Special Floodway

        • Area of Undetermined Flood Hazard

        • 0.2% Annual Chance Flood Hazard

        • Future Conditions 1% Annual Chance Flood Hazard

        • Area with Reduced Risk Due to Levee

        • Area with Risk Due to Levee

  • Estimated ROW: Select this filter to see the right-of-way within your project.

Keep this in mind!

The insights in this layer are available only within the app and are not currently downloadable.
