A FIRMette is a full-scale section of a FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that you create yourself online by selecting the desired area from an image of a Flood Insurance Rate Map.
The FIRMette also includes the map title block, north arrow, and scale bar.
There is no charge for making a FIRMette.
And because a FIRMette is a full-scale section of an official FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map,
it can be used in all aspects of the NFIP, including floodplain management, flood insurance, and enforcement of mandatory flood insurance purchase requirements.
