Coastal Impact Study:
Nation Under Siege
Visual ImagingIt can be difficult to visualize and grasp the implications of sea level rise. This is due in part to the way mapping is presented, i.e. as a two-dimensional image. Two-dimensional maps provide little, if any, visceral connection for the viewer. To overcome this disconnect, we chose to present our data in a familiar format, that of looking out an airplane window at a city or town when making the approach for landing. By illustrating sea level rise mapping as an aerial, three-dimensional snapshot of a city or town, the images take on a sense of familiarity and immediacy, and by connection, gives one a more realistic understanding of the physical impacts of sea level rise.
