Use of sea-level projections in planning
The guidelines "Havnivåstigning og høye vannstander i samfunnsplanlegging" from The Norwegian Directorate for Civil Protection (DSB) provides recommendations for how municipalities should adapt to rising sea levels and extreme still water levels. The guidelines are based on the national report "Sea-level Rise and Extremes in Norway" based on the Sixth Assessment Report from the International Panel for Climate Change (IPCC AR6).
Use the dataset "storm surge and sea-level rise" from Geonorge for recommended heights for use in planning. Heights will also be given here and in the webtool “Se havnivå I kart” at a later date.
"Se havnivå i kart" visualizes extreme still water levels and future sea-level rise.
