This maps shows the geomorphic features of the seafloor in Solomon Islands EEZ. Conservation International, GRID-Arendal and Geoscience Australia recently collaborated to produce a map of the global distribution of seafloor geomorphic features. The map represents and important contribution towards the understanding of the distribution of blue habitats.
A map showing hydrothermal vents in Solomon Islands EEZ. The map was created by MACBIO as resource for the workshop on bioregions in Feb 2018. Data is based on InterRidge Vents Database.
Map showing a classification of seamounts in Solomon Islands EEZ. Classification is based on Blue Habitats global classification scheme. The map was designed by MACBIO as resource for the workshop on bioregions in Feb 2018. Data is based on Yesson et al. (2011) "The global distribution of seamounts based on 30-second bathymetry data and Harris et al. (2014) "Geomorphology of the oceans".

The SPREP ID map is a high resolution (1MB) that shows SPREP member countries with their Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) boundaries developed by the GIS team at SPREP.
The SPREP ID map is low resolution (200KB) that shows SPREP member countries with their Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) boundaries developed by the GIS team at SPREP.
The map is high resolution showing SPREP member countries' Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) boundaries overlaid on a bathymetric base layer that was developed by the GIS team at SPREP.

Maps and associated data from the Turtle Research and Monitoring Database System (TREDS). A summary of the database can be found below.
The Turtle Research and Monitoring Database System (TREDS) provides invaluable information for Pacific island countries and territories to manage their turtle resources. TREDS can be used to collate data from strandings, tagging, nesting, emergence and beach surveys as well as other biological data on turtles.
The dataset contains a range of different Pacific regional maps developed by the SPREP GIS team and is available for use by members and partners.
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.
A direct internet link to and resources pertaining the Blue Habitat website which has been established as a portal for information on the global distribution of marine ‘blue’ habitats. Knowledge on the distribution of blue habitats is an important input into ocean management, marine spatial planning and biodiversity conservation.
Dataset regarding 'Seamounts' - peaks that rise over 1,000 m above the seafloor. Seamount chains occur in all three major ocean basins, with the Pacific having the most number and most extensive seamount chains.
