We’re considering running a damage estimate of a few residential and commercial properties likely to be inundated by the 100 and 500-Yr floodplains. What will be the best procudure to import this user-defined data into HAZUS that will enable damage and losses to be calculated since the damge functions are calculated for specifc types of facilities only.
Does the imported data get integrated into the other data types by attribution? For e.g the residential and commercial propeties will go into the General Building Stock? Since HAZUS aggregates the data at the Block Level for flooding, what will the damage losses for the newly added data be estimated?
Thanks for your help.
