“The mapping efforts were very well received by Emergency Managers and immediately brought in additional interest. The strength of the visually appealing evacuation information was the key to the success and support by these community leaders. The National Weather Service’s daily warning operations and education outreach efforts would greatly benefit from the project by improving our mission of protecting livelihoods and property for a Weather-Ready Nation.”—Alex Tardy, Warning Coordination Meteorologist

“TsunamiClear initiative is in line with National Weather Service, state, and local goals to recognize as TsunamiReady. This included development of public safety tsunami evacuation informational brochures using science-based, fully vetted State of California tsunami hazard inundation mapping.”—Kevin Miller, Tsunami Program Officer, Earthquake and Tsunami Branch
