SENTINEL-2 is a wide-swath, high-resolution, multi-spectral imaging mission, supporting Copernicus Land Monitoring studies, including the monitoring of vegetation, soil and water cover, as well as observation of inland waterways and coastal areas.
The SENTINEL-2 Multispectral Instrument (MSI) samples 13 spectral bands: four bands at 10 metres, six bands at 20 metres and three bands at 60 metres spatial resolution.

The World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) is the most comprehensive global database of marine and terrestrial protected areas, updated on a monthly basis, and is one of the key global biodiversity data sets being widely used by scientists, businesses, governments, International secretariats and others to inform planning, policy decisions and management.
The ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) Version 3 (ASTGTM) provides a global digital elevation model (DEM) of land areas on Earth at a spatial resolution of 1 arc second (approximately 30 meter horizontal posting at the equator).
The development of the ASTER GDEM data products is a collaborative effort between National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI). The ASTER GDEM data products are created by the Sensor Information Laboratory Corporation (SILC) in Tokyo.

Dataset contains training material on using open source Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to improve protected area planning and management from a workshop that was conducted on February 26-28, 2020. Specifically, the dataset contains lectures on GIS fundamentals, QGIS 3.x, and global positioning system (GPS), as well as country-specific datasets and a workbook containing exercises for viewing data, editing/creating datasets, and creating map products in QGIS.
The PacWaste Plus Programme has a specific Key Result Area (KRA) which requires specific action on the collation and review of existing data on waste and pollution at the regional and national level and identify key areas where further data needs to be collected including gender sensitive and rights-based information. Specifically, the project seeks to, i) Undertake waste audits in Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of Marshall Islands, Nauru and Vanuatu. This dataset holds waste audit data for Vanuatu, put together by Tonkin &Taylor on behalf of the Secretariat.
The impact of 7.3 Magnitude Earthquake on Vanuatu, Dec 17, 2024.
This data was produced under the Sustainable Waste Actions in the Pacific Project
The report from the GIS conference that the SPREP GIS team participated in from 25 to 29 November
this waste audit was conducted in March 2025
The waste audit was for the waste-to-energy data in the Solomon Islands.
Using a series of adaptive remote sensing monitoring technologies for the Pacific region, this report focuses on analyzing the urbanization process, coastal changes, and mangrove dynamics of all Pacific island states since 2000, revealing overall trends in urban expansion, coastal erosion, and mangrove increase, and highlights case studies from multiple typical regions in various countries.

Strategy
Committing to Sustainable Waste Actions in the Pacific” (SWAP) Project aims to improve environmental, social, and
economic conditions in Pacific Island countries and territories through proper waste management. Funded by the
Agence française de développement (AFD), this work stemmed from an awareness of the increased pressure from
development and population growth, and the impact of increasing and changing waste streams for Pacific Island
Countries and Territories (PICTs).
