Documenting Flooding in our Community: How to Use MyCoast Maryland
August 25, 2022 at 6:00 pm - 7:15 pm
Annapolis Café Scientifique presents a talk by Kate Vogel, Coastal Resilience Planner, Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Chesapeake & Coastal Service. She will discuss MyCoast Maryland, a DNR initiative created in 2019, designed to give community members a platform to share photos to document on the ground impacts of flooding and damage that are attributed to rain, storms, or high tides. This helps to determine how often a community is flooding and where, which can help identify and prioritize climate change resilience and restoration opportunities. By using MyCoast you are helping document important weather and climate related events in your community.
About the Speaker: Kate works as a Coastal Resilience Planner for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources to advance community capacity to understand, plan for and advance preparedness related to flood hazards including nuisance flooding and sea level change. She promotes resiliency planning at a community and regional scale and delivers technical assistance for coastal management projects. After graduating with a Master’s degree from the University of Michigan, Kate worked as a NOAA Coastal Management Fellow writing Climate Change adaptation and resilience plans for state lands with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
