Description

The Adapting to Rising Tides (ART) Bay Shoreline Flood Explorer is a website designed to help Bay Area communities, local governments, and the general public explore and download the ART Bay Area sea level rise and shoreline analysis maps. The Flood Explorer helps users understand current and future flooding risks due to sea level rise and storms. The website helps users learn flood concepts, explore interactive flood maps, and download GIS data. These maps show what could be at risk without adaptation and identify specific areas that face the greatest risk, helping Bay communities, governments, and businesses to drive strategic action. A final project report is also available that provides a summary of the sea level rise mapping scenarios, inundation mapping methods, stakeholder review process, and key findings for each county.
