Ratings and Reviews
New Jersey Needs Categories
MyCoastNJ could use additional categories. Some possibles: Photographs can be focused on dunes, fences, roadways, etc left vulnerable by flooding. Or reverse flow flooding through storm drains. Or overwhelmed culverts with water topping a roadway. Or seawalls, jetties, sandbars, other structures. Or vulnerable residential or commercial buildings. I've noticed that other states have different selections. There should be a key explaining the dot colors on the MyCoast map. The map should have the option to open full screen. I still think you should reconsider the title and purpose of Places I Love. It should target areas that flood but aren't flooded at the time. Extreme low tides provide useful images of the seafloor, for example. Damaged dune fence or sand on a roadway from a recent tidal surge is an aftermath photo, not a flooding shot. It might prompt more activity. I use the app regularly and find it easy to use. I certainly see its potential.
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the feedback!
Sorry about the difficulty accessing the menu icon. We've fixed this in the latest version.
We're not grabbing compass direction yet, but we've been looking into it!
What a great idea!!!
After seeing garbage, debris and derelict boats and docks all over the beaches I can finally make a difference! It’s as easy as taking a picture and writing a short report!!! This is the sort of tech that will help make the world a more green place and it’s easy for anyone to use.
Become an ocean hero
Love this app! Easy and accessible way to be an environmental steward.
