What we have:
- API running providing map tiles showing sea level rises in 1m increments for zooms up to about 76 m per pixel depending upon the area
- API running showing points of interest in any given area
- API running returning all points of interest by genre
- Data for points of interest showing the top cities at risk, species at risk in most environmental regions, most glacier locations and most major reef location data
- API running scraping common news feeds for climate and environment stories to gather environmental publicity data
- API running allowing for contributing organizations to supply links to their existing donation pages

A demo page showing the extent of the map data and map tiles is available at https://flooded.city/mapDemo.html.
What we need:
- Increased resolution source data to improve sea level rise display (30cm or better elevation increments, about 10m per pixel, covering the globe)
- Global inland flooding risk data for lakes and rivers
- Increased point of interest data to cover more cities, reefs and environmental regions, as well as other environmental items such as landslide prone areas
- Small team to moderate and help organize provided data
- Increased quizzes and rewards based on environmental topics
- Publicity planning
