Fittings FEMA Flood Zone Lookup

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative FEMA flood zone data (zone code, SFHA status, base flood elevation) for a specific US coordinate — particularly for real estate due diligence, insurance underwriting, regulatory compliance, or construction planning. It is more reliable than geocoding-based estimations and directly queries FEMA NFHL data. Pair it with the Fittings address geocoder if you start from a street address rather than coordinates.

• Coordinates outside the US return no data or an error
• Coordinate falls in an unmapped or unstudied area with no NFHL coverage
• Invalid lat/lon values (out of range) trigger a validation error
• FEMA data may be outdated relative to recent map amendments or LOMAs
• Non-number inputs for lat or lon cause schema validation failures
