Inlet Engineering Toolbox

Abstract

The Inlet Engineering Toolbox (IET) Work Unit develops desktop PC and web-based tools to aid in studies of the consequences of engineering actions at coastal inlets and adjacent beaches. District scientists and engineers need rapid-assessment tools to make decisions and visualize regional sediment transport and coastal process information over regional spatial scales. The tools and models were developed for desktop PC and web-based use, so that District scientists and engineers can complete projects in-house rather than requiring a technical expert to do the work on a high-speed computer.
