Shoreline Asset Management Solution

  27/04/2009
Halcrow has used the TatukGIS Developer Kernel (VCL edition) as the GIS engine for its SANDS (Shoreline And Nearshore Data System) solution for sustainable asset management and analysis. SANDS is a data capture, monitoring and analysis suite developed for use by asset managers, engineers, researchers and scientists, typically involved with the maritime environment, coastal areas or ports.

Once populated with the appropriate data, e.g., wind, wave and water level data, topographic and hydrographic survey data - SANDS can undertake tidal analysis and prediction, extremes analysis, wind/wave rose plots, sediment transport analysis, joint probability analysis; plus erosion/accretion analysis and area/volumetric analysis.

SANDS can also be used to relate asset values (properties, etc), habitat areas and heritage sites to coastal defenses and the associated flood risk areas to perform risk assessments or determine the most cost effective method of investing maintenance resources. Other key SANDS applications include: centralized data storage and management, data access, asset inspection reports and monitoring, and wave transformation.

 

In addition to SANDS, Halcrow's New York City office employs the TatukGIS DK-VCL extensively to create tools and utilities for on-going projects, including a toolbox for use by underwater inspection of urban piers. In addition, CommunityCartography, which is a long-time user of the DK and now completely owned by Halcrow, continues to offer specialized urban mapping tools to the New York City metro region.
