Inventory Data

In HEC-FIA inventory data represents geospatial points or grids that represent damageable elements. HEC-FIA supports the evaluation of the following damageable elements:

• Structure Damages
• Structure Content Damages
• Vehicle Damages
• Agricultural Damages
• Direct Economic Damages (from ECAM model)
• Critical Infrastructure Impacts
• Loss of Life Estimations

In order to estimate damages for the elements listed above, specific key parameters must be defined. Such key parameters include the location of the element and its susceptibility to damage by the linked hydraulic event (review Inundation Data). This chapter provides instructions for importing and configuring the commonly used damageable elements in HEC-FIA.
