To improve resilience to coastal flooding, NOAA is seeking to better understand product and information needs of the transportation community. We want to hear what you need to support your community. In addition, attendees will learn about several existing NOAA products for reducing coastal hazards and planning for resilience. Your participation will help NOAA’s National Ocean Service improve data, tools, and services to build coastal resilience at longer time horizons.
