This Search Results screen shows you a great deal of map information without showing you the FIRM itself. By number:

1. Provides the flood map number and panel number and the date that this panel became effective.

2. Provides different options for displaying the FIRM:

• "Dynamic Map" automatically creates a FIRMette based on the center of the sample map image. You can re-center the map before clicking on the Dynamic Map icon. The FIRMette is based on the National Flood Hazard Layer and can be printed


• “Map Image” allows you to download the FIRM so that it can be viewed or manipulated using your own photo editing software. (The file is saved in .tif format.) The map will be downloaded into a ZIP file, so you have to extract it prior to using it. The downloaded file can also be imported into FEMA’s downloadable FIRMette desktop software. This is especially useful if you go review the same map panels frequently.

3. The “Show All Products” button takes you to the listing of all products available for the location. This is the same information if you had clicked the “Search All Products” option from the previous screen except that we have a specific community selected. Using the Search All Products link you can download available FIRM panels, FIS Reports, LOMCs, and National Flood Hazard Layer maps.

4. Lists any LOMCs on file for the community. In this case, there are none.
