Biodiversity and Climate Geoportal
Connecting You to Papua New Guinea’s Environmental Maps and Data
The Biodiversity and Climate Geoportal is a gateway into a world of user-friendly, open-access data to help policymakers and stakeholders in Papua New Guinea (PNG) to make informed environmental policies and investments
Papua New Guinea, home to 5% of the world’s biodiversity in just 1% of its land mass, guards a breathtaking trove of natural resources including virgin rainforests, coral reefs, flora and fauna. PNG’s Biodiversity and Climate Geoportal (BCG) is an online tool for better natural resource management (NRM). Developed by UNDP under the aegis of PNG’s Natural Resource Management (NRM) Hub to support policymakers and other stakeholders with NRM data for making better policies and investments.
The BCG is built using Geonode, an open-source, web-based platform for developing geospatial information systems, and will provide policymakers and other stakeholders with NRM data for making better policies and investments.
