This database consists of a series of maps showing the maximum annually recurring wave information adjacent to 302 mileposts along Hawaii state routes on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Oahu and Kauai previously identified for their vulnerability to the effects of climate change as part of the Statewide Coastal Highways Project Report.

PWD represents Peak Wave Direction, from which the wave is coming, SWH represents Significant Wave Height, and PWP represents Peak Wave Period. Virtual Buoys (VB) are identified by Francis et al. (2019), and Mileposts (MP) are identified by Brandes et al. (2019). HDOT state routes and county street centerline datasets are acquired from HDOT (2017) and HOLIS, C&CH (2017). Shoreline datasets are provided by NGS (2017).

Please read ‘Description-Map of Maximum Annually Recurring Wave Information.docx’ for detailed information.

This database consists of a series of maps showing the estimated inundation of Hawaii shorelines caused by hypothetical category 1, 2, 3, and 4 storm surges. Individual maps show inundation across mile-long sections of Hawaii state routes on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Oahu and Kauai previously identified for their vulnerability to the effects of climate change as part of the Statewide Coastal Highways Project Report.

Mileposts are identified by Brandes et al. (2019). State of Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) state routes and Oahu street centerline datasets are acquired from HDOT (2017) and HOLIS, C&CH (2017). Storm surge maximum of maximum (MOM) inundation extents are determined by the NOAA National Hurricane Center Storm Surge Unit using the Sea, Lake and Overland Surges from Hurricanes (SLOSH) model and are reported in Zachry et al. (2015).

The travel time map was generated using the Pedestrian Evacuation Analyst model from the USGS (https://geography.wr.usgs.gov/science/vulnerability/tools.html). The travel time analysis uses ESRI's Path Distance tool to find the shortest distance across a cost surface from any point in the hazard zone to a safe zone. This cost analysis considers the direction of movement and assigns a higher cost to steeper slopes, based on a table contained within the model. The analysis also adds in the energy costs of crossing different types of land cover, assuming that less energy is expended walking along a road than walking across a sandy beach. To produce the time map, the evacuation surface output from the model is grouped into 1-minute increments for easier visualization. The times in the attribute table represent the estimated time to travel on foot to the nearest safe zone at the speed designated in the map title. The file name indicates whether the map is of the standard or extreme evacuation zone used by the City and County of Honolulu and which travel speed was used in the modelling (impaired, slow, or fast walk).

Areas designated as Special Districts Sub-Districts or Precincts by the City and County of Honolulu. The purpose of a special sub-district or precinct is to provide a means by which certain areas in the community in need of restoration, preservation, redevelopment or rejuvenation may be designated within special district to guide development to protect and/or enhance the physical and visual aspects of an area for the benefit of the community as a whole.

Special flood hazard areas for Oahu. These areas are from 2014. These data are the regulatory flood zones designated by FEMA and used for insurance rating purposes. Special flood hazard areas are subject to inundation by the 1% annual chance flood. The 1% annual chance flood (100-year flood), also known as the base flood, is the flood that has a 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The special flood hazard area is the area subject to flooding by the 1% annual flood. Areas of special flood hazard include Zones A, AE, AH, AO, AR, A99, D, V, VE, and X. The Base Flood Elevation (BFE) is the water-surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood. Mandatory flood insurance purchase applies in these zones.For additional flood information, please visit https://fhat.hawaii.gov/

Land delineated by the City Council, referencing where special controls are placed to ensure that adequate public access is provided to public beaches, recreation areas, and natural reserves, by dedication or other means.

From the Revised Ordinances of Honolulu (ROH) https://www.honolulu.gov/rep/site/ocs/roh/ROH_Chapter_25_article_1_12.pdf

Sec. 25-1.2 Purpose. It is the City and County of Honolulu's policy to preserve, protect, and where possible, to restore the natural resources of the coastal zone of Hawaii. Special controls on development within an area along the shoreline are necessary to avoid permanent loss of valuable resources and foreclosure of management options, and to insure that adequate public access is provided to public owned or used beaches, recreation areas, and natural reserves, by dedication or other means. It is also the policy of the city and county to avoid or minimize damage to natural or historic special management area wetlands wherever prudent or feasible; to require that activities not dependent upon a wetland location be located at upland sites; to allow wetland losses only where all practicable measures have been applied to reduce those losses that are unavoidable and in the public interest. (Sec. 33-1.2, R.O. 1978 (1987 Supp. to 1983 Ed.); Am. Ord. 93-74)
