MyCoast: Rhode Island is a portal to collect and analyze photos of shorelines across the Ocean State. Information collected is used to capture the impact of flood hazards today, and to illustrate possible future conditions. Photos, linked to data about weather and tides, create reports that help stakeholders like government agencies, business owners, and residents to understand shoreline change and make informed decisions.
