Coastal dataset including exposure and vulnerability layers

This deliverable is constituted by a database of datasets that will be used in the exposure and vulnerability analysis of coastal areas The database will include the list of products that will be used in WP5 for the impact assessment together with an evaluation of their completeness and the usability of the datasets in terms of coverage accuracy specifications and access The datasets will include the products portfolio of CEMS and CLMS publicly available datasets and information derived from past and ongoing EU projectsinitiatives The starting point will be the new Coastal LULC product that was implemented by the EEA and that is available for the project Additional information will be related to the location and characteristics of transport road and railway and utility networks power plants population density and time variability For example some of the publicly available datasets used in CEMS related to the abovementioned assets are OpenStreetMap building footprints road and railway network infrastructures GeoNames populated places but also names of administrative units rivers and lakes forests hills and mountains parks and recreational areas etc the Global Human Settlement Layer GHS and Global Human Settlement Population Grid GHSPOP and additional statistical data published by Eurostat population density and characteristics Wikimapia as well as data provided by projects partners As a novel product the identified assets will be analysed also in terms of vulnerability population age social and economic status from EUROSTAT building construction typology etc to collect all the available information on their susceptibility to be affected by flooding that will be used in WP5 for the impact assessment
