This data has been published for use in the Waikato Regional Council - Coastal Inundation Tool, which is a part of the Waikato Regional Hazards Portal.Point locations that represent available sea level scenario information for the Waikato coastline. Attributes include indicative sea levels for each location for; MHWS, max tide, lower and upper storm tide range, for the current climate and with 0.5 and 1 m sea level rise.  Designed for use in Waikato Regional Councils Coastal Inundation Tool.Statement:This dataset comprises point locations (vector point data) that represent where sea level scenario information is available for the Waikato coastline. Attributes include indicative sea levels for each location for; MHWS, max tide, lower and upper storm tide range, for the current climate and with 0.5 and 1 m sea level rise.  The data was created for use in Waikato Regional Councils Coastal Inundation Tool, in conjunction with GIS_IMAGE.COASTAL_INUNDATION_MOSAIC.The sea level scenarios in this dataset are based on NIWA’s national tide model and the information in the 2014 NIWA report, “Analysis of Whitianga, Tararu and Kawhia sea-level records to 2014": https://waikatoregion.govt.nz/assets/PageFiles/41257/3460508%20NIWA%20report.pdf and are derived from the (internal) table: https://discover.wairc.govt.nz/otcs/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=3819631.More information on how the scenarios were generated and the limitations of the scenarios can be found in Section 3 of the Coastal Inundation Tool User Guide: https://www.waikatoregion.govt.nz/assets/WRC/Services/regional-services/hazards-and-emergency-management/coastal/Coastal-Inundation-Tool-V2-User-Guide.pdf.Intended Use Scale:Suitable for use at all scales.Data Use Limits:Point locations are only indicative of the centre point of a polygon representing the various seal level scenario locations around the coast of the Waikato Region. Users should find the closest sea level scenario point to their coastal location of interest and use the scenario data from that point.This data does not identify coastal hazard areas suitable for assessing risk to specific property.  Further investigation is required to quantify a coastal hazard area or define minimum ground/floor levels.This information is not to be used for decisions that concern personal or public safety or the conduct of business that involves substantial monetary or operational consequences.Data Specific Disclaimers: The presence of a hazard does not guarantee the existence of such a hazard nor does the lack of information preclude the existence of a hazard or risk.
