Coastal Resilience
Sea level rise and coastal hazards mean that human communities along the coasts need their natural resources more than ever.
The purpose of the Coastal Resilience project is to provide communities with easy access to information to assist in coastal planning and management decisions regarding resources at risk from sea level rise and coastal hazards. This information is accessible through an interactive decision support tool. With the Future Scenarios Mapper, users can characterize current conditions and visualize the ecological, social and economic impacts of reasonable future flooding scenarios. Proactive solutions and adaptations can reduce impacts to human and natural communities. Appropriate planning for adaptation requires data-driven decision support, and the Coastal Resilience project provides a suite of interactive analysis options to support decision-makers.
