Sea Level Rise 3.0.5

The Sea Level Rise app enables users to map flooding in their communities, aiding in the documentation of sea level rise and other flooding impacts.

While sea level rise will affect nearly everyone in low-lying coastal areas, the app's development stemmed from work in Hampton Roads, Virginia, leveraging insights from numerous volunteers participating in the annual "Catch the King Tide" events. Created by Wetlands Watch, this application fosters community engagement and knowledge sharing to proactively address sea level rise challenges.

Users can access crowdsourced information on this global phenomenon and contribute as volunteers to gather street-level data crucial for comprehending and addressing associated challenges. The app empowers users to:

• Participate in crowd-sourcing events to collect essential localized data for researchers and civic leaders
• Identify and highlight nearby "Trouble" spots where high water disrupts travel during severe weather conditions
• Capture and share photos depicting community occurrences
• Access specialized collaboration regions to organize volunteers and plan mapping initiatives
