Summary

These polygon boundaries, inundation extents, and depth rasters were created to provide an extent of flood inundation along the Denomie Creek within the community of Odanah, Wisconsin. The upstream and downstream reach extent is determined by the location of high-water marks, not extending the boundary far past the outermost high-water marks. In areas of uncertainty of flood extent, the model boundary is lined up with the flood inundation polygon extent. This boundary polygon was used to extract the final flood inundation polygon and depth layer from the flood water surface raster file. Flood inundation mapping along the Denomie Creek follows near the eastern side of Odanah and the Bad River Lodge and Casino. The mapping extent begins [...]

Purpose

These polygon boundaries, inundation extents, and depth rasters were created to support the development of flood inundation maps for the Bad River Band of the Lake Superior Chippewa Tribe's response and recovery operations following a July, 2016 flood event. Flood-inundation maps were created for the Bad River, Beartrap Creek, and Denomie Creek for the Bad River Reservation in the vicinity of the community of Odanah.
