Super-Fast INundation of CoastS (SFINCS) model input files at Pierce County, Washington

The datasets provided here consist of SFINCS model files and sample input files used for Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) simulations of flood hazards in Pierce County, Washington. The models produce outputs for a suite of hazard products (see products in this release), such as flood depths, flood extents, and others. In this release, example forcing files for a single water year and a sea level rise of 0.0 m are provided, in addition to all other files needed to run the model.
