Gympie Regional Council has released a survey to assist in the design of a new Cooloola Coast Monitoring App. Once created, this app will gather data and information on the coastline utilising community input.

To assist in the app design, Council wants to know from the Cooloola Coast community and its visitors what are the most important aspects of the coast that we should be focusing on protecting into the future and the level of engagement the community can contribute to the program.

Councillor Jess Milne invites the community to participate in the survey.

“The community’s feedback from this survey is an important starting point to understanding the areas of the coast that hold particular value and importance to our community, and I invite you to take part.

Gympie Regional Council is hoping to include a range of great features on the app; from watercolour and coastline erosion monitoring to flora and fauna identification. The best thing is the data submitted by residents and visitors via the app will directly feed into future council coastal hazard adaptation planning,” she said.

The Coastal Monitoring App is funded by the Queensland Government’s QCoast2100 Program.

Share your thoughts on coastal management by participating in the survey. You can find the survey by visiting council’s project page www.gympie.qld.gov.au/cooloola-coast-app or by scanning the attached QR code.
