| Abstract |
Tidewatch Charts© provide an effective way to visualize and predict the magnitude and impacts of coastal flooding at specific locations within the Chesapeake Bay and along Virginia's seaside Eastern Shore. The Tidewatch Map© brings these data to your landscape by extrapolating flood levels between chart locations.
The Map provides an effective way to visualize the magnitude and impacts of coastal flooding within the Chesapeake Bay and along Virginia's Eastern Shore. The data are generated in 36 hour forecasts each morning and evening. The display is updated twice daily and will show either 6am to 6pm the following day OR 6pm to 6am the day after tomorrow. You can "click" through the display using the arrows on the right end of the slide bar at the bottom of the map, or automate the display by clicking on the arrow on the left of the slide bar.
The Map also contains a charting tool. Click anywhere in the analysis extent to display a chart with two lines: one showing water elevation over the next 36 hours at that location and the other showing the land elevation at that location. This enables the user to quickly estimate when and to what degree flooding will occur at a given location.
The Center for Coastal Resources Management (CCRM) provides these data with the understanding that they are not guaranteed to be correct or complete, and conclusions drawn from the data are the sole responsibility of the user. Every attempt has been made to ensure that these data and the documentation are reliable and accurate. CCRM, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), and the Commonwealth of Virginia assume no liability for any damages caused by inaccuracies in the data or documentation; and make no warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, or utility of the information, nor does the fact of distribution constitute a warranty. |
