Description:
Abstract:
The spatial digital file presents the results of modeling the potential tsunami flooding from Cascadia subduction zone earthquakes for Florence, Oregon, along Oregon's coast. Numerical modeling simulated tsunami flooding from three different sized earthquakes on the Cascadia subduction zone fault system that lies off the Oregon, Washington and northern California coast. Regional seafloor deformation, inland extent of flooding, timing of wave arrivals, and current velocities were estimated for least, medium, and worst-case earthquakes.
Purpose:
The purpose of the spatial digital file is to delineate hazard zones for tsunami flooding in Florence, Oregon. The mapped boundaries may be viewed as guides for evacuation planning in the event of an earthquake and tsunami.

Access_Constraints:
This spatial data file is a deliverable to Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development. Eventually, this spatial data file will be incorporated into the Oregon Coastal Atlas, a collaboration of the Oregon Ocean-Coastal Management Program, Oregon State University and Ecotrust. Dogami does not intend to publish the spatial data files as a new agency publication, nor provide a plot-on-demand paper display of the spatial data files.
Use_Constraints:
The spatial digital files can be used to create maps depicting various tsunami hazard zones. Bear in mind that the tsunami hazard zones are based on numerical simulations and subject to interpretation. Any tsunami hazard map created from the spatial data files or derivatives thereof is not a substitute for site-specific investigations by qualified practitioners. It may be used as a general guide for emergency response planning. The user is responsible for the appropriate use of this data.

To avoid the risk of misinterpretation, invalid results, and erroneous conclusions, the users must consider the original map scale, collection methodology, currency of data, and any other conditions specific to every data element and each dataset as a whole. Potential users are advised to consult with DOGMAI to gain an understanding of the inherent limitations of this data set and its scope of inference. Also, the user must be aware that errors and conditions originating from physical sources involved in developing a dataset may be reflected in the data, and that the digital processing performed during preparation, storage, and transmission of the dataset may have exacerbated such errors and/or introduced additional ones.

These data are subject to change. Acknowledgment of the DOGAMI would be appreciated in products derived from these data. DOGAMI is providing this data because the subject matter is consistent with the mission of the Department.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Accuracy of area and length attributes is unknown. No report accompanies the spatial data files.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Spatial data is presented in the form of polygons delineating potential tsunami inundation boundaries for Florence, Siuslaw River. Areas not in hazard zones are not accounted for spatially. This dataset does not have topology. However, polygons were checked for misalignment errors such as slivers, overlaps, bow ties, splits, and missing nodes. Where they are found, the errors were corrected. This data is not field-checked and is an interpretation of the original model. No guarantees are provided as to its accuracy.
Completeness_Report:
This data set was developed to delineate the inundation boundaries for Florence, Oregon. Not all communities along Oregon's coast are delineated with inundation boundaries. All geospatial database elements are attributed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Mapping of inundation boundaries was adjusted to best available local topography, which varied from area to area but was never more accurate than plus or minus 1 foot vertical and generally is no better than plus or minus 5 ft vertical; horizontal accuracy was generally no better than plus or minus 20 feet. Overall, the data cannot be more accurate than the model from which it was developed. Positional accuracy of inundation boundaries vary based on the techniques and quality of modelling. Still the horizontal accuracy of the coverage should be regarded as unknown.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: None.

Process_Description:
PROCESS FOR INUNDATION MAPS: Inundation areas were produced from three scenario Cascadia subduction zone earthquake sources (least-, middle- and worst-cases) using standard tsunami simulation software to estimate potential inland inundation. See IMS-25 for general description of mapping technique and the references below.

The simulation techniques are also discussed by Myers and others (1999) and Priest and others (2000). These last two references can be downloaded at: <http://www.ccalmr.ogi.edu/STH/online/volume17/number1/mbp/> and <http://epubs.lanl.gov/tsunami/ts182.pdf>.
