 To capture the \emph{impact} of a hydrological disaster such as tsunamies on a community one must model the the details of how waves are reflected and otherwise shaped by the local bathymetries as well as the dynamics of the runup process onto the topography in question.
 It is well known that local bathymetric and topographic effects are critical in determining the severity of a hydrological disaster (\cite{yyy}). To model the
-details of tsunami inundation of a community one must therefore capture what is known as non-linear effects and use a much higher resolution for the elevation data. The model ANUGA (\cite{ON:ANUGA}) is suitable for this type of modelling.

 However, using a non-linear model capable of resolving local bathymetric effects and runup using detailed elevation data will require much more computational resources than the typical hazard model making it infeasible to use it for the entire, end-to-end, modelling.
