SMP Explorer: Digital shoreline management tool launched.
The Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) Explorer will enable coastal practitioners and local planners to find the information they need more easily. It will also improve the Environment Agency’s ability to monitor the risks of flooding and erosion around England’s coasts throughout this century.
New content will regularly be added to the tool to keep it up to date, starting with improved National Coastal Erosion Risk Mapping later in 2024.
While aimed at coastal practitioners, the SMP Explorer is also available to the public, helping to promote an understanding of the risks of coastal flooding and erosion, alongside the management approaches and actions being taken along the coast.
