Erosion is depicted with a color ramp ranging from green (1, low) to red (4, high). As can be seen in the example, both areas of interest are expected to have eroding conditions. However, their coastal environment differs as the Cienagan coastline is a sediment plain while the area on the left is a nature conservation area. Their environmental conditions are similar other than that - medium-exposed in terms of wave conditions and both do not receive sediment inputs. However, their socio-economic conditions differ greatly, as can be seen in the risk & measures tabs.

Risk is not part of the original CHW methodology but was added to the application to add meaning to the erosion hazard. By comparing the resulting hazards to a basic notion of risk (i.e. capital stock, the total value of buildings without infrastructure), it is possible to indicate areas where erosion may be most dangerous to human values. It also helps to establish how much may be spent on the defence of the coastline to protect these values, and thus prioritize measures. In the example image the capital stock is depicted ranging from white(<$1 million usd) to dark blue (>$1 billion usd). While just one parameter is used, it can be cross-checked with other variables that are not included in the application for a more holistic overview.

For coastal environments with a high erosion hazard, coastal protection may be required. These measures are specifically suited for protection from the erosion hazard present in the coastal environment. The measures are classified in a table in the original CHW methodology and are included in the application. Based on the capital stock present it can be inferred that Cienaga requires measures to prevent damage to its properties while the deltaic plain can be left without intervention. While both regions have high erosion rates, only Cienaga has significant human value invested in it according to the indication of risk. Lastly, measures may be considered from the table of measures, but these should be applied with discetion as they may exacerbate the erosion problem.
