Geospatial Service Oriented Architecture for Flood Inundation Mapping and Hazard Assessment
Award Number 08HQAG0026, Category 2: Best Practices in Geospatial Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
The goal of the project is to implement an orchestrated workflow of discrete geospatial flood modeling and hazard assessment Web Services using hydrological models, geospatial data, and real-time and forecast flood data to enable federal agencies to more efficiently coordinate flood warning and response activities with state and local agencies. This implementation will build upon an inundation pilot study and will enable the project products to be obtained through Web services. This project will develop Web Services and define workflows to model flood events in Indiana, but as a model for transferability to other locations nationwide.
