| The strategic goal of the IODE International Coastal Atlas Network Project will be to encourage and help facilitate the development of digital atlases of the global coast, based on the principle of distributed, high-quality data and information, at local, regional, national or international scale. This can be achieved by sharing knowledge and experience among atlas developers in order to find common solutions for coastal and marine web atlas development while ensuring maximum relevance and added value for users. Many of these atlases will play an important role in informing national and regional decision- and policy-making across several themes, including: • Marine spatial planning • Climate change impacts, coastal vulnerability • Coastal governance... |
