This dataset presents the extent of dynamic coastal inundation caused by wave run-up under present-day 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) conditions. The mapping identifies areas along the Nelson City coastline where wave effects may cause temporary flooding at the coastal edge.
Covers nine coastal inundation cells:
Waimea Inlet
Tāhunanui
Rocks Road
Nelson CBD
Nelson Haven
Boulder Bank to Pepin Island
Delaware Bay estuary
Delaware open coast
Oananga Bay
Finalised December 2024, based on 2021 LiDAR and 2020-2024 modelling.
Developed by Tonkin & Taylor Ltd for Nelson City Council and recorded as Nelson Coastal Inundation Mapping Update, Phase B (v1), December 2024.
Derived from 2021 LiDAR data and wave run-up values from T+T (2020). Empirical methods were used for most shorelines; hydrodynamic modelling was applied to Rocks Road and Wakapuaka Flats. Mapping does not account for future shoreline changes or topography-induced overland flow paths.
