This course provides baseline information about the various types of flooding and teaches methods for mapping current flooding and potential coastal inundation scenarios using a GIS. Hands-on exercises help participants understand and apply the spatial methods covered in …

Sea Level Rise Viewer: Visualize community-level impacts from coastal flooding or sea level rise (up to 10 feet above average high tides) at U.S. coastal locations.

This online visualization tool supports communities that are assessing their coastal hazard risks and vulnerabilities. The tool creates a collection of user-defined maps that show the people, places, and natural resources exposed to coastal flooding.

Oct 31, 2024 · The mapper enables users to explore maps that show people, places, and natural resources exposed to coastal flood hazards and create a collection of maps to share and communicate about flood exposure.

Use this web mapping tool to visualize community-level impacts from coastal flooding or sea level rise (up to 10 feet above average high tides). Photo simulations of how future flooding might impact local landmarks are also provided, as well as data related to water depth, connectivity, flood frequency, socio-economic vulnerability, wetland ...

To understand the impact of coastal flooding on stormwater management, you must be aware of the types of flooding that coastal communities experience. There are three primary causes: rainfall runoff, river flooding, and coastal flooding.

Learn more about coastal flooding and sea level rise. Understand; Calculate current and future coastal flood frequency and impacts. Assess; Determine if, when, and how your stormwater system will be impacted. Analyze; Learn different ways to mitigate flooding issues. Take Action

This map shows the gradient of coastal flood risk that ranges from areas outside the FEMA 1% annual chance floodplain that are still at risk from high magnitude, low frequency events like major landfalling hurricanes and tsunamis, to areas nearer the …

May 8, 2024 · The Quick Flood Assessment Tool automates what used to be a time-consuming task—calculating current and future coastal flood frequency and impacts at user-defined thresholds. You will need to specify four inputs as you go through the tool.

These data illustrate potential flooding associated with coastal flood advisories. The inundation layer depicts flooding above local flooding thresholds. All data are based on best-available elevation data and methods as defined by NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management.
