Miles of coastline were affected by the millions of gallons of crude oil gushing out of the BP well in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Learn how communities have uploaded stories, photos and video to a map created by Defenders of Wildlife. Built with the Google Maps Platform, this map allows the public to see the impacts of the spill and the work being done to help preserve the coast.
