- The Coastal Modelling Environment (CoastalME) is a modelling software environment to simulate decadal and longer coastal morphological changes.
- It is an engineering tool for advanced modellers seeking to simulate the interaction of multiple coastal landforms and different types of human interventions.
- Payo et al. (2017) described in detail the rationale behind CoastalME and demonstrated how it can be used to integrate; the Soft Cliff and Platform Erosion model SCAPE, the Coastal Vector Evolution Model COVE and the Cross Shore model CSHORE.
- The software is written in C++ following the object oriented paradigm and has been documented using Doxygen.
- The C++ source code is available for download under GNU open source license via a dedicated GitHub site here.
- Creation and visualization of all inputs an ouputs can be done using your prefereed text editor (i.e. Notepad++ for the config files) and QGIS (for the raster and vector output files).
