Participate in crowd-sourcing events to capture vital sea level rise data with the Sea Level Rise app, a powerful tool designed for community mapping of flooding impacts. This app empowers individuals to document and understand the effects of sea level rise in their local areas, making it an essential resource for anyone living in or near low-lying coastal regions.

Our journey began in Hampton Roads, Virginia, where we've harnessed the power of community involvement through annual "Catch the King Tide" events. Thanks to the efforts of thousands of dedicated volunteers and the development by Wetlands Watch, this app fosters a more informed and connected community, enabling us to proactively address the challenges posed by sea level rise.

By using the Sea Level Rise app, you can access user-generated data on this global phenomenon and actively participate as a volunteer in gathering crucial street-level information. This data is essential for researchers and civic leaders who need localized insights to develop effective solutions. With the app, you can:

• Join crowd-sourcing events to collect the specific data that is currently lacking but critical for understanding local impacts.
• Identify and report "Trouble" spots where high water disrupts travel during adverse weather conditions.
• Take and share photos to visually document the flooding and sea level rise effects in your community.
• Engage with specific collaboration spaces, known as regions, to coordinate volunteer efforts and schedule mapping events effectively.
