GEOSPATIAL DATA REPOSITORY FOR THE FEDERATED STATES OF MICRONESIA (FSM)

The Digital Atlas of Micronesia is the foremost source of maps and geospatial
information for the Federated States of Micronesia.

People searching for any sort of map or GIS data can come to this web-based
Atlas to identify, visualize, query, analyze and acquire datasets relevant to
their interests.

At the core of the Atlas are user-friendly interactive maps and searchable data
repository that allow users to quickly locate, view, and manipulate geospatial
information.

In addition, the Atlas is also an informational hub that incorporates hundreds
of static maps, charts, and datasets related to the natural and human

INTRODUCTION


THE PURPOSE AND POTENTIAL OF
THIS DIGITAL ATLAS


 * INSPIRED BY THE
   DIVERSITY OF MICRONESIA
   
   This Digital Atlas covers islands spanning hundreds of miles across the
   Western Pacific. It provides access to data for any part of the region, from
   sun-drenched coral atolls to lofty peaks shrowded in clouds. People from
   every island will find information they seek about their home, complete with
   accurate place names in their own languages and spelling systems.


 * DESIGNED, CREATED, AND
   UTILIZED IN THE FSM
   
   Locally-relevant and locally-built, this resource was created in Micronesia
   for Micronesia. It is envisioned and initiated by the Water and Environmental
   Research Institute of the Western Pacific (WERI), created and maintained by
   Island Research and Education Initiative (iREi), and supported and promoted
   by the FSM Department of Environment, Climate Change & Emergency Management
   (DECEM).
