How it works

Your flood risk operations,

transformed.

Map and analyze flood risks.

Visualize FEMA flood zones alongside local data to identify at-risk properties, evaluate development proposals, and make defensible, data-backed decisions.

Streamline compliance.

Simplify floodplain permitting and ensure NFIP and CRS requirements are met with well-organized documentation, accurate Elevation Certificates, and transparent workflows.

Operate efficiently in the field.

Conduct inspections, collect photos, and complete Substantial Damage assessments with mobile tools designed for fieldwork — fully functional even when offline.

Engage and inform your community.

Support CRS outreach objectives and strengthen public trust with a resident-facing portal that shares clear, property-specific flood information and mitigation guidance.

Features

Tools that support compliance and strengthen

community resilience.

Forerunner unifies flood risk data, documents, inspections, and compliance workflows so your team can act with accuracy and keep your community prepared.

See flood risks at a glance.

Overlay FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) with local datasets to quickly understand flood zones, elevation requirements, and risk patterns. Help staff, planners, and residents interpret hazard data with intuitive mapping tools.

Centralize your floodplain records.

Keep Elevation Certificates, floodproofing documents, Repetitive Loss data, permit files, and Letters of Map Change all in one searchable platform. Stay organized for NFIP and CRS audits without chasing paper files or scattered PDFs.

Ensure accuracy with automated checks.

AI-powered validation reviews Elevation Certificates and other key floodplain documents for clerical, completeness, and elevation-related issues. Automatically flag missing fields, inconsistent values, and common errors before they slow down your workflows.

Work from anywhere with mobile inspections.

Capture photos, notes, and inspection data in the field and sync instantly to the platform. Whether conducting post-disaster Substantial Damage assessments or routine permit inspections, mobile tools keep your team aligned and efficient — even offline.

Track SI/SD compliance with ease.

Monitor Substantial Improvement / Substantial Damage values, cumulative improvements, and permit milestones in a single dashboard. Stay ahead of your threshold with automatic alerts and structured workflows.

Automate documents and outreach.

Generate consistent permit letters, inspection forms, and Substantial Damage determinations using standardized templates. Use integrated mailing tools to produce and send resident notices at scale.

Coordinate workflows across teams.

Standardize permitting, inspections, and follow-up tasks with structured workflows that keep staff aligned and reduce bottlenecks.

Simplify FEMA and CRS reporting.

Quickly pull the documentation, permit histories, and Elevation Certificates needed for NFIP audits, FEMA checks, and CRS recertification. Save hours preparing reports with organized, ready-to-submit records.

Keep your community informed and prepared.

Deliver clear, accessible flood risk information through a resident-facing portal. Provide flood zone details, historical insights, and mitigation resources that empower homeowners to take action and reduce risk.
