The objective of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) Waterway Risk Assessment effort is to develop a quantitative risk analysis modeling framework that will calculate existing risk indicators in a new mathematical model that can be used across the USCG’s area of responsibility. The new model will be incorporated into a dashboard that allows the USCG to compute risk across various indicators and visualize risk through a virtual dashboard. This updated and enhanced risk modeling capability will improve the USCG’s risk modeling ability, allowing the agency to better allocate resources and monitor the MTS, which is a vital part of the U.S. economy.
