FEMA-required documentation that establishes the precise elevation of your structure relative to the Base Flood Elevation (BFE). An Elevation Certificate can lower your flood insurance premiums, satisfy lender requirements at closing, and support a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) to remove your property from a flood zone.
An Elevation Certificate (EC) is an official FEMA form completed by a licensed land surveyor that documents the elevation of a building's lowest floor, attached garage, machinery, and other critical components relative to the BFE shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). It is the primary document used by NFIP insurance agents to calculate flood insurance premiums.
In Florida — one of the highest-risk flood states in the nation — an Elevation Certificate is often the difference between paying $8,000/year in flood insurance and $1,200/year. EA Mapping completes ECs using high-precision GNSS equipment referenced to NAVD88 and delivers FEMA-compliant forms ready for submission.
Survey-grade GNSS equipment used for NAVD88-referenced elevation measurements — the standard required for FEMA compliance.
