Engage in crowd-sourcing initiatives to gather critical data on sea level rise with the Sea Level Rise app. This innovative tool empowers you to map flooding in your local area, contributing valuable insights into the effects of sea level rise and other flooding events. Whether you're directly impacted or just concerned about the future, your participation can make a significant difference.

Our journey began in Hampton Roads, Virginia, where we harnessed the power of community through "Catch the King Tide" events. Thanks to the dedication of thousands of volunteers, we've made strides in understanding and addressing sea level rise. The Sea Level Rise app, developed by Wetlands Watch, fosters a more informed and connected community, equipping us to proactively tackle these challenges.

By using the app, you can access user-generated data on this global issue and volunteer to collect street-level information. This data is crucial for researchers and civic leaders who need localized insights to devise effective solutions. Here's how you can contribute:

• Join crowd-sourcing events to capture the specific data that's needed but often unavailable to those making decisions.
• Identify and report "Trouble" spots where high water disrupts travel during bad weather, helping to pinpoint areas that need attention.
• Document and share photos of flooding in your community, providing visual evidence of the impacts.
• Engage with specific collaboration spaces, or regions, where you can coordinate volunteers and plan mapping events to maximize our collective efforts.
