Abstract: In this paper, a storm surge numerical forecast system supported by GIS is built. This system consists in two subsystem. One is the storm surge numerical forecast system, in which multiple nested grid is used for improving the computational accuracy in coastal areas. The other is the geography information system. A case study of storm surge generated by typhoon Polly is carried out by using this system in Tianjin coastal area.
