DescriptionA high-resolution coupled atmosphere, ocean, and
inundation (flood) modeling and simulation system was
developed for scientific, accurate, fast, and efficient
forecasting of typhoon-induced disasters. This is based
on the KISTI decision-making support system (K-DMSS).
Our prediction system consists of a typhoon, surge/wave,
and flooding prediction and analysis systems (TPAS,
SPAS, and FPAS). In this research, we simulated Typhoon
‘CHABA’ (1618), which was ranked third among the most
intense tropical cyclones and was the most powerful
typhoon in the Republic of Korea (South Korea) in 2016.
The CHABA-induced storm surge and inundation were
simulated using our prediction and analysis system. To
understand intuitively the changes of physical phenomena
and damage caused by the typhoon, numerical data sets
produced by the prediction and analysis systems were
visualized using VAPOR (Visualization and Analysis
Platform for Ocean, atmosphere, and solar Researchers,
and which is a part of the K-DMSS) as one of the
visualization systems.
