Flood Map of Venice

Thought you'd be interested in this google map that shows which parts of Venice are lowest and vunerable to flooding.
http://flood.firetree.net/?ll=33.9890,-118.4627&z=2&t=0
You can see which areas are under water at different hypothetical sea level rise levels. I think we have a decade or two left before global warming causes the sea to rise 7m, but it's still a useful tool to quickly see which parts of Venice are low and vunerable to rain water flooding.
If you zoom out and raise the water level to 10 meters (30 ft) you can see how the lowest areas of LA roughly map the boundaries of Venice, bounded by Rose Ave North, Walgrove/Lincoln to the East and Jefferson to the south.
