The Data Resources webpage organizes information that we hope will be of use to coral reef managers and researchers. We focus on near-real-time global information that is freely available over the web. We also tried to include a variety of data formats, to meet a variety of user needs. For the most part, we did not include regional datasets.
The resources listed here are not intended to be a comprehensive list of all data that is available on the web. There are many other sources of credible near-real-time information out there. Exclusion of a data resource from this page does not indicate that we disapprove of the data. And, of course, inclusion of a data resource does not imply any official endorsement by NOAA or by Coral Reef Watch.
If there is an online data resource that you find useful, please let us know if it is not already on our list. Thank you!
