OpenStreetMap (OSM) is a free, editable map & spatial database of the whole world. This dataset is an extract of OpenStreetMap data for American Samoa in a GIS-friendly format.
The OSM data has been split into separate layers based on themes (buildings, roads, points of interest, etc), and it comes bundled with a QGIS project and styles, to help you get started with using the data in your maps. This OSM product will be updated weekly.
State of Environment (SoE) reports provide in-country partners with a process to gather data on current environmental indicators, document their status, and formulate a plan for keeping these indicators on track or developing policies and programs as needed. This SoE Toolkit dataset contains resources that serve as guides to help create up-to-date State of Environment reports.
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.
Global EEZ layer are the layers gathered from gazetted datasets that the Pacific Community (SPC) has received from the project countries. In areas where there are no gazetted datasets provisional layers are being sourced from the Global Marine Regions database (https://www.marineregions.org/).
There are two layers available, he .shp file layer and the .kml layer which are being used by partners and member states in particular FFA for the Regional Fisheries Surveillance Center (RFSC).
This shapefile contains the lines that shows the global 200 nautical miles zone. It can be opened in any GIS software.

The zip-file contains 2 shapefiles (points and polygons), displaying the protected areas in Palau.
Protected areas of Palau. Data sourced from: IUCN and UNEP-WCMC (2018), The World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) [On-line], [July 2018]. Cambridge, UK: UNEP-WCMC. Available at: www.protectedplanet.net.
Location and distribution of MPAs on the east side of Babeldaob. Data obtained from WDPA dataset
This resource contains a zip file with a 10-meter resolution land surface digital elevation model (DEM) and hillshade for the islands of Palau from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 1/3 arc-second DEM quadrangles. Data were published on May, 2005.
A 10-meter resolution land surface digital elevation model (DEM) and derived hillshade for the islands of Palau from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 1/3 arc-second DEM quadrangles.
Resource contains raster files for a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and derived hillshade for Nauru.
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).
This resource contains satellite imagery for Nauru. The imagery was collected on May 9, 2020.
More specially, this resource contains a raster file of RGB imagery at 10-meter resolution, using Level-2A products when available. Level-2A products include atmospheric correction and represent bottom of atmosphere reflectance values in the images. When Level-2A products were not available, Level-1C (top of atmosphere) products were used.
The image was mosaicked from the following individual Sentinel-2 scenes:
