National Economic Development Procedures Manual - Urban Flood Damage. Volume 2: Primer for Surveying Flood Damage for Residential Structures and Contents

Abstract

This is the second in a series of manuals designed to provide procedures and techniques to measure flood damage and to further implement the Principles and Guidelines of the U.S. Water Resources Council. This manual is a primer for conducting comprehensive flood damage and related surveys. It explains how basic principles of survey research can be applied to data collection for flood damage studies. Two prototype questionnaires (one face-to- face and one mail with a preliminary telephone supplement) are presented. Examples from previous applications of these questionnaires provide insight as to how they may be adapted and implemented for future flood damage studies.
