This dataset has all the presentations of the FOSS4G conference Oceania 2020. It was a one-day conference held at SPREP on Friday 20th November, aiming to raise awareness on the importance and power of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), open data, open source software, spatial data sharing, and data standards.
End of SPREP internship presentation, July 2015. Sections: climate finance challenges, overview of climate finance in the Pacific, and next steps.
End of Internship presentation on Pacific Climate Finance. Section are: climate finance challenges, overview of climate finance in the Pacific, and next steps.
Presented delivered Mr. Clark Duseigner ( GIS Officer) on the use of GIS in EPC, Samoa.
Presentation delivered by Ms. To'oa Brown on the use and application of GIS in the local based agriculture project (MGP-SAFPROM implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture
Presentation delivered by Mr. Paul Anderson (SPREP UNEP-GEF Inform Project Manager) on GIS and decision making as well as the existence of this platform (Environment Data Portal)
Presentation delivered by Mr. Unasa Nomeneta Saili from SkyEye on the use of GIS for the Measles nation-wide vaccination programme in 2019
Presentation delivered by Mr. Nomeneta Saili from Skyeye on the application of GIS to identify EPC assets that were damaged during the 2009 tsunami
Presentation delivered by Mr. Unasa Nomeneta Saili of SkyEye on the future for GIS for Samoa
Presentation delivered by Mr.James Atherton (vice president of Samoa Conservation Society) on the history and background of GIS and remote sensing in Samoa
An introductory presentation on what FOSS4G stands for and how the conference emerged.
PowerPoint presentation on the building blocks and features of the environment data portals.
PowerPoint presentation with tips on good practices, when uploading data to the environment data portals.
A direct internet link to and resources pertaining the Blue Habitat website which has been established as a portal for information on the global distribution of marine ‘blue’ habitats. Knowledge on the distribution of blue habitats is an important input into ocean management, marine spatial planning and biodiversity conservation.
Dataset regarding 'Seamounts' - peaks that rise over 1,000 m above the seafloor. Seamount chains occur in all three major ocean basins, with the Pacific having the most number and most extensive seamount chains.
a mapping representation of active and passive continental margins, oceanic plate boundaries and mid ocean spreading ridges
statistical records as of 2014 on the distribution of seamount. Accordingly, there are more seamounts in the Pacific Ocean than in the Atlantic, and their distribution can be described as comprising several elongate chains of seamounts superimposed on a more or less random background distribution (Craig and Sandwell)
Bio-ORACLE is a set of GIS rasters providing geophysical, biotic and environmental data for surface and benthic marine realms. The data are available for global-scale applications at a spatial resolution of 5 arcmin (approximately 9.2 km at the equator).
Linking biodiversity occurrence data to the physical and biotic environment provides a framework to formulate hypotheses about the ecological processes governing spatial and temporal patterns in biodiversity, which can be useful for marine ecosystem management and conservation.
Raster data representing the mean levels of calcite in µmol/m3 for the surface water layer. The data are available for global-scale applications at a spatial resolution of 5 arcmin (approximately 9.2 km at the equator).
Marine data layers for present conditions were produced with climate data describing monthly averages for the period 2000–2014, obtained from pre-processed global ocean re-analyses combining satellite and in situ observations at regular two- and three-dimensional spatial grids.
