The ASBPA National Beach Nourishment Database is an online geodatabase that provides national-scale statistics on U.S. communities beach nourishment efforts over the last century. The database has been compiled over the last two decades and is updated annually by ASBPA membership.
Please consider our 2025 call to action, and we hope you will submit any project data you have access to that would expand the scope and accuracy of the database. We certainly want updates and information on new projects, but we also need help with historic projects which includes fact checking of length and cost figures for past projects. So even though you may not have anything new to add, if no nourishment projects have occurred in your region since last year, please log in and look at nearby projects. In addition, we always welcome any quality checking help you can offer with the older records.
The update period closes on June 30, 2025: https://asbpa.org/national-beach-nourishment-database/
If you’d like to submit a project for this year’s update, please email ASBPA Science and Technology Committee Intern, Kayla O’Brien at obrienk2022@fau.edu and Executive Director Nicole Elko at Nicole.Elko@asbpa.org. Include the project year, name, volume (cubic yards), length (feet), and cost if possible.
