Story Maps
Web-based story maps enable curated presentation of scientific data geared toward non-technical or niche audiences.
Public Engagement
Effective marine science communication boosts public engagement and approval for marine infrastructure projects.
From Regulatory Compliance to Community Engagement: Our Experts Ensure Clear Understanding of Marine Science for Infrastructure Projects
Our scientists work closely with developers to minimize impacts on marine resources. We play a crucial role in public engagement by clearly explaining and visualizing our work for regulatory agencies and the public. This includes detailed reports, data visualizations, public meetings, and open houses, ensuring transparency and understanding throughout permitting and the NEPA process.
We use a variety of tools to engage the public, including interactive web-based maps for independent data exploration, curated story maps for non-technical audiences, videos for websites and social media, and training sessions to build community capacity and understanding of the science behind project decisions.
Our Public Engagement Services are Targeted to Diverse Audiences
