Digitalization of coastal management and decision making supported by multi-dimensional geospatial information and analysis

ABSTRACT

This paper summarizes the results and outcomes of our NSF Digital Government project. During four years, this project concentrated on investigating, integrating and developing geospatial technologies to enhance the operational capabilities of federal, state, and local agencies responsible for coastal management and decision making. Successful collaborations have been established among research laboratories and government agencies in the areas of data collection and analysis, hydrodynamic modeling, development of web-based systems, and real-world applications of research results.
