    Just wondering what people’s preferred methods are for getting HEC-RAS encroachments (FEMA floodway) in to either CAD or ArcGIS for mapping purposes. I know you can export everything which I know how to do, but my issue is getting the floodway interpolated correctly between cross sections. My thought was to construct a surface using the ground elevations of where the encroachments are, and then the intersection of that surface with the actual stream surface file would be a properly interpolated floodway.

    Just wondering if there are easier more straight forwarded approaches to doing this. Thanks for the help.

    You can use Mapper and export out the floodplain of the floodway model as a shapefile and adjust as needed.
