- Abstract:
-
This map shows the proposed protected areas on Pohnpei. The dataset was created by The Nature Conservancy based on the results of the workshop convened in 2014 by The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Conservation Society of Pohnpei (CSP), and Pohnpei State Governor’s Office to discuss the design of Pohnpei’s Protected Areas Network (PAN). Inputs to this dataset were current as of 4 August 2015. These data now have the attribute schema modeled from the WDPA dataset. This is the EDIT version. The following types of updates will be completed on this dataset: (1) Attribute value updates, (2) boundary edits, and (3) adding in new features. Note that areas that are no longer active as managed areas should remain in the dataset and only have their STATUS value updated.
- Purpose: This map shows the proposed protected areas on Pohnpei.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
The dataset is included in the Digital Atlas of Micronesia, module Pohnpei, created 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.

- Attribute_Definition:

Uniqute ID number for Managed Area feature. Unique 7 digit identification number assigned by the Coral Triangle Atlas to each Managed Area and to each zone within each area (if it applies), using the following convention: First digit for country, last two digits for the Zone (if applicable), middle four digits in ascending sequence. This numbering assumes that no country will have more than 9,999 managed areas and that any given managed area would not have more than 99 Zones. A unique ID will enable intelligent queries and the ability to house all managed areas in one single GIS database.

World Database Protected Area ID value
WDPA is the reference database of protected area globally
- Attribute_Definition_Source: World Database Protected Area
- Attribute:
-
- Attribute_Label: NAME
- Attribute_Definition:
-
Officially given name of the Managed Area, in a common form used by English Speakers (not necessarily in English; e.g. Pulau Panjang is usually called this way, and not Panjang Island).
The name will include the Designation (in English), as many areas are recognized locally and internationally by the name and the designation.

- Attribute:
-
- Attribute_Label: COUNTRY
- Attribute_Definition:
-
Name of the Country where the managed area resides within.
The country name is provided in English.
- Attribute_Definition_Source: CT Atlas
- Attribute:
-
- Attribute_Label: STATE_PROV
- Attribute_Definition:
-
The principle administrative subdivision within a country where the managed area is located.
If a single Managed Area is located within the boundaries of multiple states/provinces/ districts, each of these will be indicated, and they will be separated by a comma (,).

- Attribute:
-
- Attribute_Label: DOMAIN_
- Attribute_Definition:
-
This will be defined depending on the Objectives for which the Managed Areas was established. Any area inside the coastal boundary is considered terrestrial (we acknowledge that this boundary is diffuse, and might have an effect on e.g the calculation of mangrove area in managed areas).
E.g.: Komodo National Park protects both the marine and the terrestrial areas with its limits; Raja Ampat limits are completely marine.

- Attribute_Label: STATUS
- Attribute_Definition:
-
WDPA data standard defines it as the “current or “official” standing of the protected area.
CT ATLAS adds:
• “Designated” means legally and formally designated under national legal framework.
• “Proposed” means formally proposed as a manged area and under review for elevation to Designated status
• “Voluntary” means formally recognized by local community
• “Draft” means accuracy of boundary, location, and attributes are under review before elevation to one of the other three values under Status
• “No longer active” means the area is no longer under any type of conservation management
Additional definitions for use in Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea
• “Designated” means legally and formally designated under national or sub-national legal framework.
• “Dispute” means area is currently under dispute and therefore not functioning as a protected/managed area
