The geospatial dataset were derived from a spreadsheet provided by Bruce Jaffe. This data set is one of a collection of spatially referenced digital files in a geographic information system related to the Seaside, Oregon, Tsunami Pilot Study. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Federal Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) guidelines do not currently exist for conducting and incorporating tsunami hazard assessments that reflect the substantial advances in tsunami research achieved in the last two decades (Tsunami Pilot Study Working Group, 2006). Therefore, as part of the FEMA Modernization Program, a Tsunami Pilot Study was carried out in the Seaside/Gearhart, Oregon, area to provide information from which tsunami mapping guidelines could be developed. This area was chosen because it is typical of coastal communities in the section of the Pacific Coast from Cape Mendocino to the Strait of Juan de Fuca. There was also considerable interest shown by state agencies and local stakeholders in mapping the tsunami threat to this region. The study was an interagency effort by scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the University of Southern California, and the Middle East Technical University. We present the GIS data from that report in this publication. These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. The data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) software to display geologic and oceanographic information. 2006 publication date Complete None planned -123.936836 -123.910540 46.019953 45.976579 USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:f591f9cd-a3bd-4387-9b62-cbe648e48f2f None National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NOAA Center for Tsunami Research U.S. Geological Survey USGS Coastal and Marine Geology Program CMGP Western Coastal and Marine Geology WCMG point shapefile tsunami inundation observations water levels ISO 19115 Topic Category oceans environment geoscientificInformation USGS Thesaurus tsunamis geospatial datasets Geographic Names Information System Seaside Oregon United States USA North America none 1997 None.
