Transects for Historical Shorelines - Kauai, Maui, and Oahu, Hawaii

Combined layer of transect layers provided by Hawaii Coastal Geology Group for historical shoreline study. Includes shoreline change rates at the location of the transect. The "WLR" property records the shoreline change rate in meters per year (m/y) while "WLR_calcfeet" is in feet per year (ft/y). Negative values indicate a trend of beach erosion (loss) while positive values indicate a trend of beach accretion (growth).
