Preface
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Life Loss Estimation (LifeSim) software allows you to evaluate the life loss and economic damages resulting from a single flood scenario.
The LifeSim software is developed at RMC, which is a division of the USACE Institute for Water Resources (IWR). The first version of LifeSim (Version 1.0) was released in 2017. This Technical Reference Manual is tailored for Version 2.0 of the LifeSim software.
Woodrow Fields leads the LifeSim development team. Stephanie Owen and Brennan Beam provided review and support throughout the development of this manual in 2020. Jason Needham and William Lehman contributed significantly to all versions of LifeSim. Lea Adams was the Chief of the Water Resources Systems Division, and Chris Dunn was the director during the development of Version 2.0 of the software.
This Technical Reference Manual was originally prepared for the USACE Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) by HDR Engineering, Inc. Additional information can be found in the LifeSim User's Guide. LifeSim manuals are available on this RMC Software Documentation website and the RMC website.
