New ICAN Coastal Atlas User Survey

ICAN has initiated a new Coastal Web Atlas User Survey (also linked above left under About ICAN. This survey is intended to collect vital information from the user community regarding the value and utility of currently available CWAs. The survey queries the CWA user community on their personal experiences with digital atlases within their state or region of interest. What works? What doesn’t? What’s needed? ICAN hopes to gain a perspective from which to prepare specific guidelines that address the do’s and don’ts in CWA development. This should continue to encourage and enhance the future development of CWAs around the globe.

The ICAN Coastal Web Atlas User Survey is accessible through the Internet at this link. For individuals who manage or maintain CWAs we hope you will consider placing this link on your atlas site to expand the number of responders in the near future.
