Documenting Flooding & Storm Damage to Inspire Action

MyCoast: Maryland allows you to communicate flooding and storm damage in your community. It is a portal to collect and analyze photos which are linked to precipitation, riverine, and tidal data to create reports that help government agencies, business owners, and residents understand impacts in your community and encourage action to reduce localized flooding.
