Marine Atlas: Maximizing Benefits for Fiji

Description

While the ocean covers more than two thirds of the Earth’s surface, the oceanic territory of Fiji is 70 times larger than its land territory. With an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of 1.29 million km2, Fiji is a large ocean state.

Improvements in research over the years have enabled us to better understand the ocean system and to develop solutions with a sustainable approach. A lot of data have become publicly available, with this atlas compiling over a hundred data sets from countless data providers to make this treasure trove of marine and coastal information accessible and usable for the first time — as maps with narratives, as data layers and as raw data.
