Edge of America Tour

Climate Central is taking FloodVision on the road.

In June, Climate Central will kick off a 6-month trek through coastal communities from Maine to Texas, capturing and sharing impactful stories and images of coastal resilience and risk.

This groundbreaking expedition from Maine to Texas will empower communities with vital insights into coastal flooding and sea level rise. Max Grater, a seasoned film and documentary producer and director, will drive our new FloodRover II (an all-electric Ford F150

Lightning) along the Eastern and Gulf coasts, generating science-based photorealistic visuals of flood risk and meeting up with local leaders and experts who want to do something about it.

Our trip route is starting to fill up, but we're aiming to meet with meteorologists, journalists, academics, scientists, NGOs, and others.

We want your input! Let us know the coastal locations important to you for FloodVision to collect images and data.

Tour kickoff:

06/03

About FloodVision

Climate Central has developed a science-based tool to show the impact of climate change before the next disaster strikes. As we drive the FloodVision vehicle through coastal communities, we scan the streets to collect video, lidar, and elevation data.
