The purpose of this legislation, known as the IMAGES Act of 2025, is to enhance the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) by improving the accuracy and detail of flood rate maps. These maps are crucial for assessing flood risks and determining insurance rates for properties in flood-prone areas. Key provisions of the act include several important updates to how flood rate maps are created and maintained. The legislation mandates the inclusion of planimetric features, such as roads and buildings, along with their parcel identification data and addresses.
