Online_Linkage: <http://www.islands.fm/atlas/#/pohnpei-state>

Description:

Abstract:

This dataset shows the office locations of key government entities (state, national, foreign). It was created by Island Research & Education Initiative (iREi) (2017), based on field verification and 2016 WorldView-3 satellite imagery by Digital Globe.

Purpose:

To show the office locations of government entities and international organizations.

Supplemental_Information:

The dataset is included the Digital Atlas of Micronesia, module Pohnpei, by Island Research & Education Initiative (iREi), in collaboration with Water and Environmental Research Institute of the Western Pacific (WERI) University of Guam and partial funding from United States Geological Survey (USGS), under WRRI 104-B Program, project # 2016GU302B.
