What is the primary goal of Map Modernization ('MapMod')?

  1. To ensure all properties are insured

  2. To modernize community infrastructures

  3. To revise and update flood maps

  4. To reassess all properties within the SFHA

The correct answer is: To revise and update flood maps

The primary goal of Map Modernization is to revise and update FEMA flood maps. This makes options A, B, and D incorrect because they are not related to the primary goal of MapMod. Option A, insuring all properties, is not a goal of MapMod but rather a result of its data and map revisions. Option B, modernizing community infrastructures, is not the primary goal as it instead focuses on updating outdated flood maps. Option D, reassessing properties within the Special Flood Hazard Area, is not the primary goal as it is only a part of the overall map revision process. Therefore, option C is the correct choice as it directly aligns with the primary goal of MapMod.
