Help Populating LGIM FEMAFloodZone Feature Class?

Question

We are in the process of migrating to the Local Government Information Model, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to populate the feature class FEMAFloodZone. I have downloaded the latest FEMA data that I could find (09/28/16), but don't see any one layer in the gdb that matches the schema LGIM wants. Does anyone have any tips on how to get the correct data into LGIM?

A few more specific questions include:

How is the field FLOODWAY intended to be filled?

The LGIM PANELTYPE field has a length of 5, but the most similar field I've found in my FEMA data is PANEL_TYP which has a length of 30. What is LGIM looking for?

What is a DFIRM quadrant?

Thank you

Hi Ellen,

We just use the FEMA service. This way we don't have to maintain it. This link may help:

FEMA: Mapping Information Platform: NOPAGETAB_NFHLWMS

While not specific to your flood information, this discussion, https://community.esri.com/thread/185346-feature-datasets-or-dataowners-for-sde  and another one I linked within it might be helpful in your deployment of the LGIM.
