Description:

Abstract:

This data release provides flooding extent polygons based on potential future sea-level rise (SLR) water levels for the coast of the most populated Hawaiian Islands of O'ahu, Moloka'i, Kaua'i, Maui, and Big Island. Digital elevation models were used to extract SLR flooded areas along the coastlines at 10-m2 resolution and converted to polygon shapefiles of the extents for +0.25 m, +0.50 m, +1.00 m, +1.50 m, +2.00 m, and +3.00 m SLR scenarios.

Purpose:

These flood extent files were created to evaluate coastal flooding in the most populated Hawaiian Islands of O'ahu, Moloka'i, Kaua'i, Maui, and Big Island due to climate change influenced SLR. The data are intended to help identify areas where management and/or restoration could potentially help reduce the risk to, and increase the resiliency of, the coastal communities in the populated Hawaiian Islands. The data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) software for research purposes.

Supplemental_Information:

Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.
Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is intended to document the dataset in nonproprietary form, as well as in Esri format, this metadata file may include some Esri-specific terminology.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

All extracted elevation DEMS for each scenario of sea level rise were converted from a raster to polygons in ArcPro. Each elevation raster was multiplied by zero than set to a value of 1. These new rasters were then converted to polygons using the value one to group adjacent areas. The resulting shapefiles were the outlines denoting the extent of flooding for each of the six SLR scenarios (0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 m) for the coast of O'ahu, Moloka'i, Kaua'i, Maui, and Big Island. These polygons were then visually inspected to remove any polygons that could not be the result of SLR flood inundation. Final shapefiles were separated by island ([Island]_SLR_extents.zip) for file-size considerations.

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

shapefiles contained in this part of the data release include projected flood extents in the following format SLR_[Island]_[SLR scenario]_extent.shp, where [SLR scenario] = one of the 6 SLR scenarios modeled (050cm, 100cm, 150cm, 200cm, 300cm). Files are grouped by island, containing all SLR scenarios. For example, Oaju_SLR_extents.zip, contains all outputs for O'ahu, within which SLR_Oahu_300_extent.shp illustrates the flood extents for a SLR of 300 cm.
