Description
Seabed 2030 is a collaborative project between the Nippon Foundation of Japan and the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO). It aims to bring together all available bathymetric data to produce the definitive map of the world ocean floor by 2030 and make it available to all. The project was launched at the United Nations (UN) Ocean Conference in June 2017 and is aligned with the UN's Sustainable Development Goal #14 to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources. The South and West Pacific Center acts as the regional focus for data compilation and co-ordination activities for Seabed 2030 in the South and West Pacific region. The Center has responsibility over 123 million sq.km of ocean from South America to Australia, between 10°N and 50°S, and the western part of the Pacific Ocean to 50°N. The region includes the world's deepest trenches, internal seas, and Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ) from Pacific Island Countries and Territories (PICT). In the most remote regions, bathymetric data originate from existing ship tracks that are spaced up to 100 km apart. The center is based at the New Zealand National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) and is one of Seabed 2030's network of regional and global centers.
