Volunteers photograph local flooding, upload to app
MyCoast RI, launched in 2015, supports community monitoring of neighborhood flooding from rain, rising tides, storm surge, and snowmelt. Its public database hosts over 2,000 reports and photos from around the state showing neighborhood- and street-level impacts to things like streets, sidewalks, parking lots, buildings, and shoreline access areas. These are usable by residents, planners, and decision-makers to identify priority areas for investments in resilience and adaptation.
