2004 Workshop Introduction Agenda Meeting Minutes Participants Example Coastal Community   Coastal Community The exisiting GIS information for several real coastal communities listed below will be used as a basis for "hypothetical" virtual communities. Each community will have specific features (e.g. a port, river, estuary, houses on a spit, oil storage tanks). If a community is too complex from the modeling standpoint, it can be simplified by exliminating or splitting off features, or by combining several features to form a new community. Virtual Community Model #1 -- Owase, Japan Virtual Community Model #2 -- Lincoln City, Oregon Virtual Community Model #3 -- Seward, Alaska Virtual Community Model #4 -- Ports of LA and Long Beach
