Dikes are built along the sea coast in order to protect the country from floods. Extreme wave-height and still water level are two very important factors for causing flooding along the sea coast.

Catastrophe factor = 0.4 * wave-height [m.] + sea level [m.] > 6.2.   
Taking into account the country’s geography, the area of flooded land-space can be calculated using the following formula:   
LogNormal(1.38*Catastrophe factor^2, 3.52*Catastrophe factor^(1/4)) [100 sq. km.].
