After storm events, it’s essential to perform infrastructure assessments as quickly as possible.

MyCoast enables state employees and “citizen scientists” to submit images, damage reports and associated location data about storm-damaged infrastructure. Our mobile apps make the submission process straightforward, and our servers allows state agencies to search, view and download this data easily.

Reports are provided to state coastal resource managers and municipal officials through our online tool set. We use multiple tools to automatically gather weather and tidal information for the report based on its exact time and location — nearly 200 data points and growing. All of this data is available for easy download by state leads.

State leads can view, approve, or trash posts as they come in. They can also view and contact their users, and download all their data and photos with a couple of clicks.
