ExposR: Models Topographic Exposure to Hurricane Winds

The EXPOS model uses a digital elevation model (DEM) to estimate exposed and protected areas for a given hurricane wind direction and inflection angle. The resulting topographic exposure maps can be combined with output from the HURRECON model to estimate hurricane wind damage across a region. For details on the original version of the EXPOS model written in 'Borland Pascal', see: Boose, Foster, and Fluet (1994) <doi:10.2307/2937142>, Boose, Chamberlin, and Foster (2001) <doi:10.1890/0012-9615(2001)071[0027:LARIOH]2.0.CO;2>, and Boose, Serrano, and Foster (2004) <doi:10.1890/02-4057>.
