A flood barrier coverage represents natural or artificial barriers that are not represented explicitly in the elevations of a TIN. The flood plain delineation process can then use these barriers while interpolating water surface elevations across a TIN surface. The resultant flood depth will be closer to reality rather than a mere interpolation. For example, an embankment or a road is not always represented in a TIN.
