Litpack

Litpack (Littoral processes and coastline kinetics) is simulation software for coastal sediment transport.[1][2] The software is an industry standard model for one-line shoreline change.[2] Litpack is developed by DHI.[2]

Research

An Army Corps of Engineers study compared this program to two others, GenCade and Unibest.[3] The study found "notable differences" in predictions of shoreline change models.[3]
