National Plan for Disaster Impact Assessments:
Weather and Water Data

FCM-P33-2010

________________

The National Plan for Disaster Impact Assessments: Weather and Water Data (NPDIA) describes collaborative mechanisms and procedures for coordinating disaster impact assessment and planning activities for significant storm events among participating Federal agencies and their affiliated partner organizations. This plan supersedes the National Post-Storm Data Acquisition Plan (March 2003).

The intent of the NPDIA is to describe the types of data required or desired by the participating entities and the means these entities will use to coordinate data acquisition and data management activities. It is not the goal of this plan to prescribe the data acquisition activities of participating agencies, but instead to coordinate those activities already required by existing agency mission directives. The procedures outlined herein will likely be revised and refined as experience is gained from their application.
