Port Fairy Risk of Salient Loss

The Port Fairy Local Coastal Hazard Assessment (LCHA) provides information on the extent of coastal hazards and their physical impacts for the Port Fairy coastal environment.\n\nThis data identifies areas that could be affected in the event of salient loss, which cannot be fully quantified with contemporary desktop engineering techniques. The areas highlighting the risk of salient loss were obtained by using the overall surrounding beach alignment, as this would likely be the natural position to which the shoreline would revert in the eventuality of salient loss.\n\nDetails of the assumptions made in the derivation of this information can be found in project reports on the Our Coast website: http://www.ourcoast.org.au/cb_pages/resources.php.\nUsers of this information should read these project reports to understand the limitations of the data.

波特费里本地海岸灾害评估（Local Coastal Hazard Assessment，LCHA）针对波特费里海岸环境，提供了海岸灾害的波及范围及其物理影响相关信息。

本数据集可识别岸线显著损失（salient loss）事件中可能受影响的区域，此类影响无法通过当前桌面工程分析技术完全量化。所标识的岸线显著损失风险区域，基于周边海滩的整体走向推导得出——该走向即为岸线在发生显著损失后自然恢复的基准位置。

本数据集推导过程中所采用的各项假设细节，可在“Our Coast”官方网站的项目报告页面查阅：http://www.ourcoast.org.au/cb_pages/resources.php。使用本数据集的用户需仔细阅读上述项目报告，以明确该数据的适用局限性。
