Slide1: 

Linking Spatial and Environmental Data Under the Aegis of the Interamerican Biodiversity Information Network (IABIN) Component 2: A Mesoamerican an Caribbean Digital Seamless Mosaic of Elevation Derivatives Eric van Praag, USGS National Center for EROS / City of Knowledge Phase I Accomplishments through July 05 Presented at the IABIN-DGF Coordinating Meeting in Panama, July 7-8, 2005

The Project in a Nutshell: 

The Project in a Nutshell Funding source: World Bank - through IABIN Secretariat Funding DGF: $85,500 Geographic area: Central America and the Caribbean Implementation period phase I: October 04 – September 05 Participating agencies: USGS, CATHALAC, IABIN Secretariat, water agencies, national mapping agencies. Products: Digital maps of basins, streamlines, slope, aspect, shaded-relief, flow accumulation, and flow direction

Objectives: 

Objectives Create and facilitate access to a regional seamless dataset of elevation derivatives. Link biodiversity and environmental information developed by IABIN with elevation-derived data. Speed the transfer of the source SRTM level-2 dataset to selected national agencies.

Slide4: 

Comparison of an existing 90-meter DEM with the new 30-meter DEM EDC will produce Adapted from NGA material

Elevation derivatives will be produced for:: 

Elevation derivatives will be produced for: Central America Panama Costa Rica Nicaragua El Salvador Guatemala Honduras Belize Caribbean Dominican Republic Haiti Jamaica Puerto Rico Trinidad and Tobago
