Through Flood Factor, an online visualization tool, the Foundation makes its data accessible to the public for free. First Street also shares its data directly with leading economists, engineers, risk experts, and other researchers so those experts can analyze the national implications of flood risk. The First Street team is made up of scientists, technologists and communicators.
