About the Digital Coast Partnership
The Digital Coast Partnership represents many of the website's diverse user groups. Their participation in the development of this information resource provides assurance that NOAA products and services are being used to address coastal issues such as resilience planning and habitat conservation.
Current members of the Digital Coast Partnership include the American Planning Association, Association of State Floodplain Managers, Coastal States Organization, National Association of Counties, National States Geographic Information Council, The Nature Conservancy, and NOAA.
The Digital Coast Partnership is supported by the Mississippi Coordinating Council for Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems.
In 2012, fellows were placed with Digital Coast partner organizations for two years to complete projects developed by the partners. For more information, visit www.csc.noaa.gov/cms/fellows/digitalcoast.
