PacificMap

App web pages About the PacificMap The PacificMap is a platform developed by CSIRO Data61and the Pacific Data Hub (PDH) in collaboration with the Pacific Community Secretariat (SPC), as part of the Asia - Pacific for Development Initiative (D4D). The PacificMap is a platform for map-based access to spatial data from 22 Pacific Island Countries and Territories. It will lower the barrier and enhance access to timely, relevant and useful data for government and non-government organisations, businesses and communities throughout the Pacific. The Pacific Data Hub is the central repository of open data and knowledge products about the Pacifc region. The Hub holds a large and diverse collection of data, data insights, publications, and knowledge products on the Pacific across key sectors, including population statistics, fisheries, geoscience, agriculture, aquaculture, energy, education, human rights, climate change, and oceans, and it continues to grow. The PacificMap development is supported by the Data for Development initiative which apart from the Pacific Data Hub, is working with SPC on a range of issues such as predictive analytics, data governance, data capacity and skills development, Pacific women in technology, policy research and other.

The PacificMap is based on TeriaJS and other open source software. When you access data through it, you are typically accessing the data directly from the government department or agency who are the custodians of that data. The PacificMap: • provides easy access to authoritative and other spatial data to government, business and the public; • facilitates the opening of data by federal, state and local government bodies; • provides an open framework of geospatial data services that supports commercial and community innovation. To see what data is available on the Pacific Map, refer to the Data Catalogue in the Pacific Map itself. Click the Add data button and expand a category to browse.
