INVERLOCH_CHA_02SLR_2021_SIMP

A 2021 modelled dataset from the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action assessing erosion hazard zones in the Inverloch region. The dataset likely contains hazard zones determined for sea level rise scenarios of 0m (2020), 0.2m (2040), 0.5m (2070), and 0.8m (2100), combined with storm events of 1%, 5%, and 10% annual exceedance probability. It was last updated on the platform in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling coastal erosion risk based on projected sea level rise scenarios mentioned in the description.
• Assessing storm event impacts on shoreline stability based on the annual exceedance probability (AEP) values.
• Planning for long-term coastal infrastructure and land use based on the 2020-2100 planning horizons.
• Visualizing geospatial hazard zones for community engagement and policy development.

Strengths

• Explicitly models four sea level rise scenarios (0m, 0.2m, 0.5m, 0.8m) with associated planning years.
• Incorporates three distinct storm event intensities (1%, 5%, 10% AEP) for hazard assessment.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats (DWG, SHP, GDB, etc.) for compatibility with various GIS tools.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale modeling.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality and generalization details require manual inspection.
