Sea Level Rise

Join the effort to combat sea level rise by participating in crowd-sourcing events with the Sea Level Rise app. This innovative tool empowers users to map and document flooding in their communities, providing crucial data on the impacts of sea level rise and other flooding events. The app is especially vital for those in low-lying coastal regions, where the effects of rising sea levels are most pronounced.

Our journey began in Hampton Roads, Virginia, where we've harnessed the power of community involvement through annual "Catch the King Tide" events. Organized by Wetlands Watch, these initiatives have engaged thousands of volunteers, fostering a more informed and connected community ready to tackle the challenges of sea level rise head-on.

By using the Sea Level Rise app, you can actively contribute to our understanding of this global phenomenon. Here's how you can get involved:

• Participate in crowd-sourcing events to gather the localized data that researchers and civic leaders need to address sea level rise effectively.
• Identify and report "Trouble" spots where high water impacts your travel during adverse weather conditions.
• Capture and share photos to document the real-time effects of flooding in your community.
• Engage with specific collaboration spaces, known as regions, to manage volunteers and organize mapping events.
