MyCoast.org vs Cleanlet

MyCoast allows anybody to quickly submit photos of coastal events, such as storm damage or king tides, to state agencies. Use our app to snap a photo, pinpoint your location and upload it to the mycoast.org server. MyCoast is used by participating US states to track a number of types of events including storm damage, abandoned boats, beach clean-up programs, king tides and nuisance flooding.

Cleanlet is a unique, gamified platform designed to encourage community participation in maintaining clean storm drains and preventing flooding. This initiative, brought to you with NSF funding for Drexel University's College of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering, empowers every individual to contribute to environmental research on climate change. Create an account, locate nearby storm drains using our easy-to-navigate map, and sign up for notifications about upcoming cleaning jobs. Before an adverse weather event, you'll receive a push notification to clear debris from your chosen storm drain. Snap before and after photos of your hard work to earn points and level up. While the points may be for bragging rights, the real reward is a safer, cleaner neighborhood and a healthier environment. Join Cleanlet, contribute to crucial climate change research, and take a hands-on role in protecting your community from storm drain flooding. Cleanlet: changing the world, one storm drain at a time.
