Tuvalu: Gathering the data to climate-proof coastal infrastructure investments
30 Nov 2021 / The Tuvalu Coastal Adaptation Project (TCAP) is helping the Pacific atoll nation of Tuvalu to develop a long-term coastal adaptation strategy. This Green Climate Fund project, implemented by UNDP, is using airborne LIDAR, a state-of-the-art airplane-mounted technology, to collect precise information on land surface height and seafloor depth. The data will help model future climate-impact scenarios, allowing better planning of coastal infrastructure investments to protect vulnerable communities.
