Tools provided through the Digital Coast fill a lot of gaps for the have-nots in public safety." National Alliance for Public Safety GIS Foundation "The Digital Coast Partnership is an excellent example of effectively governing a federal initiative with a large stakeholder community." National States Geographic Information Council Every time I go on that site I find something new that I love. My goal is to spend more time promoting NOAA tools in our communities and less time making our own tools.
