What is the purpose of CHECK-RAS software?

  1. To verify parameters in the HEC-RAS hydraulics program

  2. To manage FEMA insurance claims

  3. To design channels and levees

  4. To simulate storm surges

The correct answer is: To verify parameters in the HEC-RAS hydraulics program

This software is specifically designed to verify the parameters used in the HEC-RAS hydraulics program. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they involve different purposes that do not pertain to the verification of parameters in the HEC-RAS hydraulics program. Option B deals with insurance claims, option C relates to channel and levee design, and option D involves simulating storm surges. These purposes may be important in other contexts, but they are not the specific purpose of CHECK-RAS software.
