G2CRM is a probabilistic life cycle analysis model for evaluating performance and economic benefits of inundation prevention measures for coastal storms. The model calculates storm related asset damage over the life of a study for with and without project scenarios. The model applies flood barriers, bulkheads, and non-structural measures to asset inventories. G2CRM provides output detailing all storm information and asset behavior in the form of csv files and sqlite databases readily readable by data analytics software. Model certification through the CSRM-PCX is ongoing and expected to be completed by the end of FY23.
Version 0.4.564 is the latest version.

Chief’s Reports
- The majority of all USACE coastal storm risk management studies exploring flood control structures apply G2CRM. These studies result in a Chief’s Report. These reports for coastal storm risk management can be found at: https://planning.erdc.dren.mil/toolbox/library.cfm?Option=Direct&Group=Main&Item=Chief%20Report&Sub=None&Sort=YearDesc
Validation cases are forthcoming.

Version updates will be available at the CHL website in the near future.
G2CRM is designed to calculate damages prevented by coastal flood prevention measures.
