Abstract

Coastal Engineering practice encompasses a substantial diversity of technologies varying in sophistication and origin. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires interactive computer based design capabilities for this purpose. An overview is presented of the contents, history, usage and issues relative to a widely used collection of automated technologies for a variety of coastal engineering topics.
