Storm Surge Modeling

The Office of Coast Survey hosts the National Ocean Service's Storm Surge Modeling Team, which develops modeling infrastructures for end users to perform disaster risk assessments and prediction capabilities to reduce and mitigate coastal vulnerability to natural disasters. These products improve communication and collaboration with national and international agencies by understanding charting, bathymetry, water level, currents, and other NOAA products. Such efforts also support products and services that are vital for

safe maritime navigation,
world class geodetic infrastructure, and
sustainable use of ocean resources for economic health and growth.
