1. Resources: Texas Hazard Mitigation Package (THMP): An Internet-based GIS Data Distribution Tool www.thmp.info Project by Texas Geographic Society  Sub-grantee of the Texas Governor’s Division of Emergency Management  The purpose of this grant is to compile and deliver digital geographic datasets that can be used by state and local hazard mitigation planners in identifying potential natural hazards and assessing relative risk

2. Texas Hazard Mitigation Package www.thmp.info  THMP is a free, easy-to-use, online application to: Identify historical hazard occurrences actual hazard event locations summarized by county Identify hazard risk areas Display supplemental information (including Base Data) for hazard- related data Determine relative vulnerability (to population and property value) Download hazard-related data for use in other GIS-based systems

3. Hazards: Weather-related 1.Hurricanes & Tropical Storms Hurricanes: 1851-2001 Tropical/Subtropical Storms: 1851-2001 Hurricane Tracks: 1851-2001 Tropical/Subtropical Storms: 1851-2001 Hurricane Risk Zones Hurricane Evacuation Routes 2.Tornadoes Tornadoes (F3-F5): 1950-2003 Tornadoes (F1-F5): 1950-2003 Tornado Risk Zones Tornado Events (F3-F5): 1950-2003 Tornado Events (F1-F5): 1950-2003 3.

16. Texas Hazard Mitigation Package Summary:  Use THMP, online, to identify and provide necessary data and maps for mitigation plans and other related risk assessment activities  Use THMP, online, to access other resources related to hazards and mitigation planning  Use THMP to download data into your own GIS/mapping systems to support or initiate your specific projects  Use THMP to download data into HAZUS to supplement the map  Use THMP, online, for preliminary investigation of vulnerable areas to analyze in HAZUS
