High error margins
Planners build adaptation cases on freely available global terrain data. Vertical error in those surfaces often exceeds the sea level change the plan is designed around.
CAPITAL & INFRASTRUCTURE
Plan, site, and protect infrastructure against decades of coastal flooding
Infrastructure built today must stand through decades of sea level rise. Climate Central supplies coastal ground elevation, flood exposure layers at chosen water levels, and the record of what past disasters have cost. Useful for utilities and port authorities, infrastructure investors, state and municipal governments, and engineering consultants.
