The folder contains GIS data for Nomuka Island acquired from UNOSTAT. Shapefiles are derived from Pleiades Sensor and World View2 sensor with data available on Structures impacted for 17/01, 18/01 (Points), Analysis Extent for 17/01, 18/01 (Polygon), Flood extent, Lake extent (13/11/21 and 18/01/22), Cloud obstruction and SW Shoreline for 13/11/21, 18/01/22.
Buffer distances of 100, 150 and 250km created from the volcanic eruption boundary to identify the level of impacts from the eruption to the resources within the three impact zones.
The map shows landcover and vegetation impact of the Hunga Tonga Hunga Haápai volcanic eruption on the Tonga Island group.
Map showing reefs with in the different Impact Zones.
This is the Geojson format of the same data in shapefile.
The folder contains GIS data for Eua Island acquired from UNOSTAT. Shapefiles are derived from Pleiades Sensor and World View 3 sensor with data available on Structures impacted (Points), Analysis Extent (Polygon), Cloud obstruction (Polygon) and Shoreline (Lines).
The folder contains spatial data in Geojson format for Tonga Volcanic Eruption Damage Assessment Analysis - Atata Island, Fonifua Island, Mango Island and Nomuka Island acquired from UNOSTAT. Datasets available are Structures impacted (Points), Analysis Extent (Polygon), Cloud obstruction (Polygon) and Shoreline (Lines) which are derived from the Pleiades , Kompsat 3 and World View 3 Sensors.

This new set of 60 indicator icons can be used in a State of Environment report to indicate the status of environmental issues and progress in a country.
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.

Map of the protected areas for the Pacific Islands Region with regional-level summary statistics on the amount of area under protection, count for each type of protected area (terrestrial or marine), and the count of their designation.
The Smithsonian Institution's Global Volcanism Program (GVP) is housed in the Department of Mineral Sciences, National Museum of Natural History, in Washington D.C. We are devoted to a better understanding of Earth's active volcanoes and their eruptions during the last 10,000 years.
Reefs at Risk Revisited is a high-resolution update of the original global analysis, Reefs at Risk: A Map-Based Indicator of Threats to the World’s Coral Reefs. Reefs at Risk Revisited uses a global map of coral reefs at 500-m resolution, which is 64 times more detailed than the 4-km resolution map used in the 1998 analysis, and benefits from improvements in many global data sets used to evaluate threats to reefs (most threat data are at 1 km resolution, which is 16 times more detailed than those used in the 1998 analysis).
