It would just show you visually what wall heights and levee heights were in the areas with storm surges. It would quickly show areas that have wall heights below the storm surge height though. best, sean Hi Francine,

Can you integrate data on levee and floodwall heights and base flood elevations? This is very significant work. Thank you. Interesting visualizations.
