The DEM was generated from different Data sets:
A 3D view of DEM 10m Resolution for DIBBA The resultant DEM is a 10 m resolution grid which combine both bathymetry and topography data

In this study, a Numerical code called NSWING (Non-linear Shallow water model with nested grids) is used to compute tsunami wave forms that includes the discretization and explicit leap-frog finite difference scheme to solve the shallow water equations in spherical coordinates

The tsunami impact descried in term of maximum wave height, flow depth ,run- up, drawback and inundation distance.
Probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment approach consists in considering the recurrence rate of earthquake scenarios with different magnitudes. The result is a probability of exceeding a certain wave height/flow depth in a given periods.
