Project Goal
Built and maintained by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA), ResilientMass is the Commonwealth’s initiative for building statewide capacity for climate change adaptation and resilience. ResilientMass provides information on funding,?localized climate change science and data, and decision support tools to facilitate action that enhances climate resilience for local planners, practitioners, policymakers, and the public.Business Problem Solved
The ResilientMass Maps and Data Center page features several interactive data and tools, using a variety of ESRI products, to empower Massachusetts communities to better understand their exposure to climate change and use the latest climate science to inform and guide resilience project planning and implementation. The Hub page provides access to statewide climate change projections used to inform the development of the Massachusetts Climate Change Assessment (2022) and ResilientMass Plan (2023), a web tool to support more equitable community-wide climate planning, a climate grant viewer to share examples of climate adaptation implementation across the state, and relevant applications developed by EEA agencies.
