This report is a guide for computing longshore transport rate. Step-by- 

 step procedures are presented as a guide through an analysis of the available 

 data to the appropriate choice of one or more of the four SPM methods of 

 estimating the longshore transport rate. Each of the four methods is 

 explained with appropriate references or examples.
