Metadata: Coastal Design - Extreme Sea Levels (archived data)
Abstract:
This dataset has now been superseded by data provided by the Environment Agency for England and Wales, please see metadata number EXT_DS123552 - "Environment Agency: Coastal Flood Boundaries (CFB) publication 2018 - England and Wales (3rd Party Data)". This is a GIS dataset and supporting information providing design / extreme sea level and typical surge information around the coastline of Wales under present day conditions. This is a specialist dataset which informs on work commenced around the coast ranging from coastal flood modelling, scheme design, strategic planning and flood risk assessments. The dataset contains the following layer components: - Extreme Sea Level Values: Extreme sea levels for a range of return periods - Extreme Sea Level Confidence Level: Confidence intervals providing allowances for uncertainty - Estuary Boundaries: Inland estuarine boundaries of the extreme sea levels - Surge Shape Locations: Reference to surge shape appropriate for each Class A gauge site and where to apply it - Tide Gauge Locations: Location of gauging stations

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 8840 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Coastal Design - Extreme Sea Levels (archived data) |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Coastal Flood Boundary Estuary Boundaries, Coastal Flood Boundary Confidence Intervals, Coastal Flood Boundary, CFB extreme sea levels.LYR, AfA188 Coastal Design/Extreme Sea Levels |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | NRW_DS116259 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 4f4c4942-4343-5764-6473-313136323539 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1915-01-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2008-06-01 |
