RMI Protected Areas data from the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA), downloaded August 2019. This dataset includes both tables and spatial data.
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 August 17-21, 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.
Dataset contains a series of maps that are used in the 2021 Republic of the Marshall Islands State of the Environment Report. Resources within this dataset may be sued for other reporting purposes.
The map shows areas of critical importance for the biodiversity and ecosystems of Nauru's terrestrial and marine environments.
This dataset shows the Nauru Exclusive Economic Zone Boundary (EEZ) in relation to the Pacific Islands EEZ boundaries.
SPREP is leading the charge to make the Pacific Games in July go plastic free in an awareness and outreach initiative aptly called Greening of the Games. This dataset holds a draft report and a raw baseline data collected from a clean-up at Mulinu'u executed on the 11th May 2019 by the the Team Samoa Va'a, to contextualize solutions and interventions to address marine litter and plastic pollution.
