For the global version of the MI-SAFE toolbox a derivative product called SRTM15_plus is used. It offers a continues global coverage of bathymetry and topography. The SRTM15_plus dataset is created by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (http://topex.ucsd.edu/index.html). This dataset is mainly used for viewing purposes since it 
is a continues dataset at global level. For use in the MI-SAFE application a more detailed dataset is created using the SRTM3 v4 and GEBCO. The finest resolution of approximately 90 meter is combined where GEBCO is rescaled to 90 meter and interpolated to the SRTM tiles. For performance reasons this is done for tiles along the OSM shoreline of the coast.

Could you include some background information on the case study areas, i.e. a short description of the vegetation, natural wave climate, extreme conditions and any other relevant information? A starting point would be the case study descriptions in the DoW, but they do need to be updated.
