Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Confidence) for Hawaii at 6ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:hi_hcgg_bigi_slr_vuln6_i)

This map shows levels of confidence of coastal flooding (inundation) around Hawaii Island (Big Island) in the State of Hawaii due to 6 feet (1.829 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW). Blue areas denote a high confidence of inundation, orange areas denote a low confidence of inundation, and unshaded areas denote a high confidence that these areas will be dry at this water level. In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet. Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM). These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction. These data do not specify timing of inundation and are not appropriate for conducting detailed spatial analysis.

In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet. Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM). These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction. These data do not specify timing of inundation and are not appropriate for conducting detailed spatial analysis. The entire risk associated with the results and performance of these data is assumed by the user.

Sea Level Rise Inundation: 4-ft Scenario: Honolulu, Hawaii (PACIOOS:hi_csp_hono_slr4ft)

This map shows coastal flooding around Honolulu, Hawaii due to 4 feet (1.219 m) of sea level rise. This scenario was derived using a National Geospatial Agency (NGA)-provided digital elevation model (DEM) based on LiDAR data of the Honolulu area collected in 2009. This "bare earth" DEM (vegetation and structures removed) was used to represent the current topography of the study area above zero elevation for the urban corridor stretching from Honolulu International Airport to Waikiki and Diamond Head along the south shore of Oahu. The accuracy of the DEM was validated using a selection of 16 Tidal Benchmarks located within the study area. The single value tidal water surface of mean higher high water (MHHW) modeled at the Honolulu tide gauge was used to represent sea level for the purposes of this study. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excluding wind-driven tides). Data produced in 2014 by Dr. Charles "Chip" Fletcher of the department of Geology & Geophysics (G&G) in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Confidence) for Maui at 5ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:hi_hcgg_maui_slr_vuln5_i)

This map shows levels of confidence of coastal flooding (inundation) around the island of Maui in the State of Hawaii due to 5 feet (1.524 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW). Blue areas denote a high confidence of inundation, orange areas denote a low confidence of inundation, and unshaded areas denote a high confidence that these areas will be dry at this water level. In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet. Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Coastal Services Center (CSC). These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction. These data do not specify timing of inundation and are not appropriate for conducting detailed spatial analysis.

Sea Level Rise Inundation: 3-ft Scenario: Honolulu, Hawaii (PACIOOS:hi_csp_hono_slr3ft)

This map shows coastal flooding around Honolulu, Hawaii due to 3 feet (0.914 m) of sea level rise. This scenario was derived using a National Geospatial Agency (NGA)-provided digital elevation model (DEM) based on LiDAR data of the Honolulu area collected in 2009. This "bare earth" DEM (vegetation and structures removed) was used to represent the current topography of the study area above zero elevation for the urban corridor stretching from Honolulu International Airport to Waikiki and Diamond Head along the south shore of Oahu. The accuracy of the DEM was validated using a selection of 16 Tidal Benchmarks located within the study area. The single value tidal water surface of mean higher high water (MHHW) modeled at the Honolulu tide gauge was used to represent sea level for the purposes of this study. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excluding wind-driven tides). Data produced in 2014 by Dr. Charles "Chip" Fletcher of the department of Geology & Geophysics (G&G) in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Supported in part by the NOAA Coastal Storms Program (CSP) and the University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program.

This map shows inland extent of coastal flooding (inundation) around the island of Kauai in the State of Hawaii due to 1 foot (0.305 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW), created by subtracting the NOAA VDATUM MHHW surface from a digital elevation model (DEM). The resolution of the DEM is 3 meters and was derived from the best available LiDAR data sets known to exist at the time of creation. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excluding wind-driven tides). Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM). These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction. These data do not specify timing of inundation and are not appropriate for conducting detailed spatial analysis. The entire risk associated with the results and performance of these data is assumed by the user.

Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Confidence) for Guam at 4ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:gu_hcgg_all_slr_vuln4_i)

This map shows levels of confidence of coastal flooding (inundation) around Guam due to 4 feet (1.219 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW). Blue areas denote a high confidence of inundation, orange areas denote a low confidence of inundation, and unshaded areas denote a high confidence that these areas will be dry at this water level. In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet. Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM). These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction.

Multi-Hazard Inundation: Honolulu, Hawaii (PACIOOS:hi_csp_hono_allflood_slr0m)

Multi-hazard inundation around Honolulu. The study area includes the urban corridor stretching from Honolulu International Airport to Waikiki and Diamond Head along the south shore of Oahu. Shows inundation from the following two hazards: 1) Tsunami Run-Up Inundation Computer model simulation of tsunami run-up inundation using current sea level at mean higher high water (MHHW) as its baseline water level. The model simulates maximum inundation based on five major historical tsunamis that have impacted Hawaiʻi: 1) The 1946 Aleutian earthquake (8.2 Mw), 2) 1952 Kamchatka earthquake (9.0 Mw), 3) 1957 Aleutian earthquake (8.6 Mw), 4) 1960 Chile earthquake (9.5 Mw), and 5) the 1964 Alaska earthquake (9.2 Mw). 2) Hurricane Storm Surge Inundation Computer model simulation of hurricane storm surge inundation using current sea level at mean higher high water (MHHW) as its baseline water level. The model simulates a Category 4 hurricane, similar to Hurricane Iniki which devastated the island of Kauai in 1992, with a central pressure ranging from 910 to 970 mbar and maximum sustained winds ranging from 90 to 150 mph as it tracked from open ocean to land to open ocean again. The model result shows the Maximum of the Maximum Envelope of High Water (MEOW), or MOM, providing a worst-case snapshot for a particular storm category under "perfect" storm conditions. Data produced in 2014 by Dr. Kwok Fai Cheung of the department of Ocean and Resources Engineering (ORE) in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Supported in part by the NOAA Coastal Storms Program (CSP) and the University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program.

Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Confidence) for Oahu at 4ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:hi_hcgg_oahu_slr_vuln4_i)

This map shows levels of confidence of coastal flooding (inundation) around the island of Oahu in the State of Hawaii due to 4 feet (1.219 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW). Blue areas denote a high confidence of inundation, orange areas denote a low confidence of inundation, and unshaded areas denote a high confidence that these areas will be dry at this water level. In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet. Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM).

Sea Level Rise Inundation: 1-m Scenario: Honolulu, Hawaii (PACIOOS:hi_csp_hono_slr1m)

This map shows coastal flooding around Honolulu, Hawaii due to 1 meter of sea level rise. This scenario was derived using a National Geospatial Agency (NGA)-provided digital elevation model (DEM) based on LiDAR data of the Honolulu area collected in 2009. This "bare earth" DEM (vegetation and structures removed) was used to represent the current topography of the study area above zero elevation for the urban corridor stretching from Honolulu International Airport to Waikiki and Diamond Head along the south shore of Oahu. The accuracy of the DEM was validated using a selection of 16 Tidal Benchmarks located within the study area. The single value tidal water surface of mean higher high water (MHHW) modeled at the Honolulu tide gauge was used to represent sea level for the purposes of this study. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excluding wind-driven tides). Data produced in 2014 by Dr. Charles "Chip" Fletcher of the department of Geology & Geophysics (G&G) in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Supported in part by the NOAA Coastal Storms Program (CSP) and the University of Hawaii Sea Grant College Program. These data do not consider future changes in coastal geomorphology and natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, or future construction. These data do not specify timing of inundation depths and are not appropriate for conducting detailed spatial analysis. The entire risk associated with the results and performance of these data is assumed by the user. These data should be used strictly as a planning reference and not for navigation, permitting, or other legal purposes.

Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Coastal) for Molokai at 5ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:hi_hcgg_molo_slr_con5_i)

This map shows inland extent of coastal flooding (inundation) around the island of Molokai in the State of Hawaii due to 5 feet (1.524 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW), created by subtracting the NOAA VDATUM MHHW surface from a digital elevation model (DEM). The resolution of the DEM is 3 meters and was derived from the best available LiDAR data sets known to exist at the time of creation. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excluding wind-driven tides). Data produced in 2014 by NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM).

Sea Level Rise Vulnerability (Confidence) for Oahu at 5ft above MHHW (PACIOOS:hi_hcgg_oahu_slr_vuln5_i)

This map shows levels of confidence of coastal flooding (inundation) around the island of Oahu in the State of Hawaii due to 5 feet (1.524 m) of sea level rise above mean higher high water (MHHW). Blue areas denote a high confidence of inundation, orange areas denote a low confidence of inundation, and unshaded areas denote a high confidence that these areas will be dry at this water level. In this application, 80% is considered a high degree of confidence such that, for example, the blue areas denote locations that may be correctly mapped as "inundated" more than 8 out of 10 times. Areas with a low degree of confidence represent locations that may be mapped correctly (either as inundated or dry) less than 8 out of 10 times. Confidence mapping is a fairly complicated procedure that is explained in detail in "Mapping and Portraying Inundation Uncertainty of Bathtub-Type Models" available at "http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-13-00118.1". In short, the method includes the uncertainty in the LiDAR-derived elevation data (root mean square error, or RMSE) and the uncertainty in the modeled tidal surface from the NOAA VDATUM MHHW (RMSE). This uncertainty is combined and mapped to show that inundation extent is not really a hard line, but rather a zone with greater and lesser chances of getting wet.

Drainage, ponds & reservoirs - Southern Guam (PACIOOS:gu_weri_sog_drain_pondres)

This data set, which was initially created in 2006, contains lakes and fishponds of the island of Guam. The features were depicted of the USGS 7.5' Quadrangle Maps of 2000 (DGR's) and compared to the 2006 QuickBird imagery for currentness and exact location. The data set contains seasonal lakes which may no longer exist.
