The following are the key categories for system function: 

1. HYDROLOGY AND METEOROLOGY

2. RISKS AND HAZARDS

3. ENVIRONMENT

4. OCEAN

5. LAND COVER AND LAND USE

6. AGRICULTURE

7. WATER

8. ENERGY

C-READ is web-based but also utilizes the power of localized GIS software at the user level.

The combination of localized processing and web-integration facilitates processing power and gives maximum system functionality.
