Climate Access Look Ahead SF
Take a 360° tour of three city sites at risk from sea-level rise and find out what is possible with climate action through the Look Ahead – San Francisco app. Each site has three visualizations showing: current flooding levels, future flooding level if climate action is not taken, and the future that is possible with climate action.
Visit the sites in-person to get the full experience! Look for the colorful Look Ahead signs to ensure you are standing in the optimal viewing location.
Interact with the virtual environment by tapping on colorful icons to reveal facts about sea-level rise risks and possible responses at that location, and to answer survey questions to share your concerns and ideas directly with city planners and elected officials. Turn around 360° to get the full experience and click the “next” icon to advance from one visualization to the next.
The app also provides links to San Francisco’s programs and projects that you can get involved in to reduce your individual carbon footprint, and join fellow citizens in building the climate movement for a more sustainable future. Your participation in the app helps to support the City’s public engagement and planning around climate change.

This is astoundingly cool, See the future of sea level rise....whether or not you are at one of the three locations in San Francisco - you get a pleasant 360 degree view of that place - then view the same location in the future. Of all the predicted global warming disruptions, sea level rise is the most certain. Certain it is happening now - pinch your little finger, that's how much sea level is rising every year.. and it will grow more each year. This is a wonderful app - simple - it just shows the same place now, and in the future. Ambient sound. Single screen or split for 3D glasses. Good empathy for global warming future. ... good to start a dialog with the kids before the tell you how much they hate you for ruining their future. Nah, just show them, this will be their world, sun is still shining, just move to higher ground. Thanks for this I want to see this app for other cities.
all I can see is a white screen. when trying to look at the 3 places. Also it should have more then 3 places to look at.
