New Updates to Hurricane Sandy Recovery Tool
Description: The Sea Level Rise Tool for Sandy Recovery has been updated. The Tool, which covers Sandy-affected counties in New York and New Jersey, comprises 1) a set of map services that show flooding risks based on future scenarios of sea level rise, and 2) a sea level change calculator that provides site-specific detail on projected flood elevations. Formerly, the sea level rise scenarios for New York extended only to 2050, but now, both components of the Tool have been updated with scenarios for 2080 and 2100.
