Demo with Canadian MPAs #6

Closed gabrielspadon closed 4 weeks ago

gabrielspadon commented 12 months ago

The AISViz project requires us to work with Marine Protected Areas (MPA). I suggest we integrate pre-prepared datasets for each MPA near Atlantic Canada into the AISdb repository to make it public. The MPAs of interest are Banc-des-Américains, Basin Head, Eastport, Gilbert Bay, The Gully, Laurentian Channel, Musquash Estuary, and St. Anns Bank. You can find more information about them at https://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/oceans/mpa-zpm/index-eng.html. To ensure that we have the most comprehensive data possible, I suggest delineating a bounding box that extends 20 kilometers beyond the defined boundaries of these MPAs. You can find the official bounding boxes at https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/a1e18963-25dd-4219-a33f-1a38c4971250. The goal of this bounding box is to capture vessel traffic data from July 2022 to January 2023, spanning over six months. By incorporating this additional data, people interested in AISdb can run examples near these protected areas.

@tsuzzy, this can be done with #3.
