The Coastal Hazards System (CHS) (https://chs.erdc.dren.mil) is a national-scale, multi-agency initiative for quantifying coastal hazards from hurricanes and extratropical storms along U.S. coastlines and other strategic locations critical to national security. The CHS is a central USACE and federal resource of consistent high-fidelity, high-resolution coastal hazard data, covering frequent to extreme storm events. Using its cutting-edge Probabilistic Coastal Hazard Analysis (PCHA) framework, CHS encompasses a wide range of coastal hazards, including storm surge, waves, wind, rainfall, compound coastal-inland flooding, seiche, extreme tides, Sea Level Rise (SLR), and climate-induced storm changes. CHS is an industry-standard and easily accessible web-based environment for development, storage, and rapid access to PCHA hazard results and hydrodynamic modeling simulations of coastal storms. A user-friendly interface provides easy access, mining, plotting, and downloading of high-fidelity probabilistic and numerical modeling results for historical and synthetic coastal storms that could impact U.S. coastlines.
