A single centralised database specifically for CVI globally is not available. However, some of the regional CVI information are available at:
1. European Environment Agency: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/en/metadata/tools/coastal-vulnerability-index-2013-cvi
2. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA): https://coastalscience.noaa.gov/data_reports-explorer/?tx_category=coastal-change
The research article on the application of CVI to Calabria Coastline, Italy is available at https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-26374-w#Tab4
