Texas Coastal Erosion Data Network

Summary

 A central location was established where new (and historical) data reports regarding coastal erosion (both gulf and bay-side) could be accessed by the public, managers, regulators and academic researches. This network will coordinate with existing data sources and networks not only in the area of direct web links between web sites, but also in the areas of data sharing, management and planning.  A communication tools such as a web site, newsletter, presentations (and possibly training), were developed to help increase awareness and thus utilization of important coastal erosion data resources now accessible through the TCEDN.
