Sea-level change rise flood spatial data
We build our maps of sea level flooding from analysis of sea-level measurements and numerical models and we have verified the results against sea-level run-up observations collected after large storm-tide events. This sea-level rise flood dataset comprise 9 extreme coastal flooding scenarios (2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000-year average recurrence interval) and 21 relative sea-level rise scenarios ranging from 0 to 2 metres in 10 cm (0.1 m) increments. Our maps are created using a Geographic Information System (GIS). As a result, we can make attractive images and provide valuable climate information as digital layers to be incorporated into your specific project.
