Regional Morphology Analysis Package (RMAP): Part 1, Overview

Abstract

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the Regional Morphology Analysis Package (RMAP), an integrated set of tools developed for manipulating, analyzing, visualizing, and archiving data on shoreline positions and beach profiles in a georeferenced environment on a personal computer. Information can be referenced to and displayed on aerial photographs and maps. Data types and analysis procedures, which were developed to support regional as well as local project studies, are applicable to coasts, estuaries, and rivers. This technical note provides an overview of RMAP. Future technical notes in the RMAP series will describe specific features and new capabilities.
