In this presentation, Amy will share a recently-launched Chicago rivers region online parcel database and watershed mapping tool. The tool illustrates how river improvement goals can address equity, public health, biodiversity, resiliency, and greenway connectivity together through strategic watershed investments in nature-based solutions. You'll first hear an introduction to how the tool was co-created with stakeholders, followed by a live demonstration of the tool. You'll walk away understanding how different geographic data layers can be combined to reveal project prioritization strategies, view who is impacted by projects, and serve as a tool for rivers advocacy.
