The inundation maps, which can be accessed through the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Science Web site at http://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation/, depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to selected water levels (stages) at the USGS streamgage 03360500 White River at Newberry, Ind. Current conditions at the USGS streamgage in Indiana may be obtained on the Internet at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/in/nwis/current/?type=flow. In addition, the information has been provided to the National Weather Service (NWS) for incorporation into their Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS) flood warning system (http:/water.weather.gov/ahps/). The NWS forecasts flood hydrographs at many places that are often collocated at USGS streamgages. That forecasted peak-stage information, also available on the Internet, may be used in conjunction with the maps developed in this study to show predicted areas of flood inundation. In this study, flood profiles were computed for the stream reaches by means of a one-dimensional step-backwater model. The model was calibrated using the most current stage-discharge relations at the USGS streamgage 03360500 White River at Newberry, Ind. The hydraulic model was then used to determine elevations throughout the study reaches for 22 water-surface profiles for stages at 1-ft intervals referenced to the streamgage datum and ranging from bankfull to nearly the highest recorded water level at the USGS streamgage 03360500 White River at Newberry, Ind. The simulated water-surface profiles were then combined with a geospatial digital elevation model (derived from Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data) in order to delineate the area flooded at each water level.The availability of these maps along with real-time information available online regarding current stage from USGS streamgages and forecasted stream stages from the NWS provide emergency management personnel and residents with information that is critical for flood response activities such as evacuations and road closures as well as for post flood recovery efforts. The purpose of this report is to describe the development of a series of estimated flood-inundation maps for the White River at Newberry, Indiana. The maps and other useful flood information are available on the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Science Website and the NWS AHPS Website. Internet users can select estimated inundation maps that correspond to (1) current stages at the USGS streamgage, (2) the NWS forecasted peak stage, or (3) other desired stream stages. The initial target audience is the state and local agencies that must make emergency operational decisions during flooding events. However, since the graphics are easy to view, anyone with an interest during these events can make use of the maps, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Corps of Engineers (COE), state and local emergency managers, the media, and the general public. en 2012 ground condition Complete None planned -87.061078 -86.992040 38.957545 38.910077 2959082.9178052978710.9178051333717.0231821350993.023182 none flood flood inundation mapping hydrologic prediction hydraulic modeling Newberry, Indiana Newberry, Indiana None.

Indianapolis Indiana 46278 317-290-3333 The U.S Geological Survey conducted the hydraulic analysis and GIS analysis to produce the inundation data. NWS provided the QA\QC review of the data. Funding was received from Camp Atterbury Joint Maneuver Training Center, Edinburgh, Indiana,for this project. Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.2 (Build 3790) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.3000 US Geological Survey, Indiana Water Science Center 2012 Unknown raster digital data Scientific Investigations Map SIM XXXX Reston, VA US Geological Survey https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/XXXX http://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation/ Raster Dataset Attributes for water surface elevation were input from the HEC-RAS model output data table. Flow input data for the HEC-RAS model were obtained from the most current stage-discharge relation at the USGS streamgage 03360500 White River at Newberry, Indiana. There are no unclosed polygons or intersections without nodes. The ArcGIS geodatabase topology tools were used to make corrections using rules including no gaps, no duplicate lines with the same beginning and ending nodes. This dataset is complete; there are no planned revisions or updates at this time. As with any engineering analysis of this type, variation from the estimated flood heights and floodplain boundaries is possible. Details of the process used to produce this data can be found in project documentation available from the data contact person. Horizontal accuracy was tested by evaluating boundaries to best available topographic dataset.

U.S. Geological Survey, Indiana Water Science Center 2012 online 2012 ground condition Fowler and others (2012) Numeric hydraulic model was used to compute water surface profiles at selected elevations along mapped reach. The water surface profiles were then used to generate the inundation map boundaries. Flood-inundation maps were created for a 4.9 mile reach of the White River at Newberry, Indiana. The maps were created in a GIS by combining the water-surface profiles and digital elevation model data. The digital elevation model (DEM) data were derived from LiDAR data with 3.3-ft horizontal accuracy and a vertical accuracy of 0.12 ft. The initial resolution of the DEM with 2.5-ft cell size was later re-sampled to 10-ft cell size in order to reduce the GIS processing time. Estimated flood-inundation boundaries for each simulated profile were developed with HECGeoRAS software. HECGeoRAS is a set of procedures, tools, and utilities for processing geospatial data in ArcGIS by using a graphical user interface. The interface allows the preparation of geometric data for import into HECRAS and processes simulation results exported from HECRAS. USGS personnel then modified the HECGeoRAS results to ensure a hydraulically reasonable transition of the boundary between modeled cross sections relative to the contour data for the land surface. The maps show estimated flood-inundated areas overlaid on high-resolution, geo-referenced, aerial photographs of the study area for each of the water-surface profiles that were generated by the hydraulic model.

Disclaimer for Flood-Inundation Maps: Inundated areas shown should not be used for navigation, regulatory, permitting, or other legal purposes. The USGS provides these maps as-is for a quick reference, emergency planning tool but assumes no legal liability or responsibility resulting from the use of this information. Uncertainties and Limitations for Use of Flood-Inundation Maps: Although the flood-inundation maps represent the boundaries of inundated areas with a distinct line, some uncertainty is associated with these maps. The flood boundaries shown were estimated based on water stages (water-surface elevations) and streamflows at selected USGS streamgages. Water-surface elevations along the stream reaches were estimated by steady-state hydraulic modeling, assuming unobstructed flow, and using streamflows and hydrologic conditions anticipated at the USGS streamgage(s). The hydraulic model reflects the land-cover characteristics and any bridge, dam, levee, or other hydraulic structures existing as of November 2011. Unique meteorological factors (timing and distribution of precipitation) may cause actual streamflows along the modeled reach to vary from those assumed during a flood, which may lead to deviations in the water-surface elevations and inundation boundaries shown. Additional areas may be flooded due to unanticipated conditions such as: changes in the streambed elevation or roughness, backwater into major tributaries along a main stem river, or backwater from localized debris or ice jams. The accuracy of the floodwater extent portrayed on these maps will vary with the accuracy of the digital elevation model used to simulate the land surface. Additional uncertainties and limitations pertinent to this study are described in the document accompanying this set of flood inundation map plates. If this series of flood-inundation maps will be used in conjunction with National Weather Service (NWS) river forecasts, the user should be aware of additional uncertainties that may be inherent or factored into NWS forecast procedures. The NWS uses forecast models to estimate the quantity and timing of water flowing through selected stream reaches in the United States. These forecast models (1) estimate the amount of runoff generated by precipitation and snowmelt, (2) simulate the movement of floodwater as it proceeds downstream, and (3) predict the flow and stage (water-surface elevation) for the stream at a given location (AHPS forecast point) throughout the forecast period (every 6 hours and 3 to 5 days out in many locations).
