Join the fight against sea level rise by participating in crowd-sourcing events using the Sea Level Rise app. This innovative tool empowers you to map flooding in your community, providing critical data on sea level rise and other flood-related impacts. Whether you live in a low-lying coastal region or not, understanding sea level rise is crucial, and your contributions can make a significant difference.
Our journey began in Hampton Roads, Virginia, where thousands of volunteers have participated in annual "Catch the King Tide" events, organized by Wetlands Watch. These efforts have been instrumental in building a more informed and connected community, enabling us to stay one step ahead of rising waters.
With the Sea Level Rise app, you can access user-submitted data about this global phenomenon and actively participate as a volunteer. Your role in capturing street-level data is vital for researchers and civic leaders who need this information to address the challenges posed by sea level rise. Here's how you can contribute:
- Participate in crowd-sourcing events to gather the localized data that is crucial yet often lacking for researchers and civic leaders.
- Identify and report "Trouble" spots where high water impacts your travel during adverse weather conditions.
- Capture and share photos to document the flooding in your community, providing visual evidence of the situation on the ground.
- Engage with specific collaboration spaces, known as regions, to manage volunteers and schedule mapping events effectively.
