Description: This report documents the input data used in developing the shoreline classification, the procedures implemented to classify the shoreline and metocean conditions along the shore and the resulting sensitivity mapping. The results presented herein represent our best estimates based on available data. It is expected that the results of this analysis can be revisited and refined as improved input data becomes available. Automated shoreline delineation algorithms have been employed in the shore classification process making the re-visiting and re-analysis of this data a relatively simple and efficient task.
