You can type your question to the chat as well 47 00:03:46,035 --> 00:03:49,176 if you don't want to 48 00:03:49,176 --> 00:03:50,522 come on video or anything. 49 00:03:50,522 --> 00:03:53,514 So I might see it as we're going along. 50 00:03:53,814 --> 00:03:56,955 If not, I'll get to it at the end, but I'll try to keep an eye on that as well. 51 00:03:59,348 --> 00:04:01,742 And of course we'll have 52 00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:04,883 time at the end to to chat as well. 53 00:04:04,883 --> 00:04:07,875 If anyone wants to ask questions then. 54 00:04:10,269 --> 00:04:10,867 All right. 55 00:04:10,867 --> 00:04:13,859 So I'll go ahead and get started. 56 00:04:15,804 --> 00:04:16,851 So just for today's 57 00:04:16,851 --> 00:04:20,142 agenda, we'll first go over the project's objectives, lay out 58 00:04:20,142 --> 00:04:24,031 the groundwork for the goals of this project. 59 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,023 I'll then go over the project area 60 00:04:27,023 --> 00:04:30,613 and the general methods for this prioritization process. 61 00:04:30,613 --> 00:04:32,708 Some of you may or may not have been involved 62 00:04:32,708 --> 00:04:36,597 in this type of GIS platform that we use. 63 00:04:36,597 --> 00:04:41,085 So we'll give you kind of a brief background on that. 64 00:04:42,132 --> 00:04:44,226 I'll give a demonstration of the Web tool 65 00:04:44,226 --> 00:04:47,218 that will be using to input your data needs. 66 00:04:47,368 --> 00:04:51,556 And finally, we'll go over the timeline and next steps. 67 00:04:52,454 --> 00:04:55,446 And, of course, like I said, we'll have some time at the end for 68 00:04:55,446 --> 00:04:58,737 if there's any other outstanding questions that you guys have. 69 00:05:00,682 --> 00:05:04,721 So this effort is part of the CRCP's multidisciplinary approach 70 00:05:04,721 --> 00:05:09,208 and as part of their cross-cutting approach 71 00:05:09,208 --> 00:05:14,145 that involves many areas of expertise from several NOAA offices. 72 00:05:14,145 --> 00:05:19,381 So this effort will provide the necessary information and enabling conditions 73 00:05:19,381 --> 00:05:22,522 for effective coral reef conservation and management. 74 00:05:23,569 --> 00:05:26,711 So by identifying any gaps in existing data, 75 00:05:26,711 --> 00:05:30,301 we can determine high priority locations and make sound recommendations 76 00:05:30,301 --> 00:05:33,891 on the best places to prioritize for future mapping efforts 77 00:05:35,387 --> 00:05:37,332 and locations identified during 78 00:05:37,332 --> 00:05:40,623 this process will inform future planning. 79 00:05:40,623 --> 00:05:44,213 But funding decisions are not a part of this project or anything. 80 00:05:44,213 --> 00:05:45,560 And this is, like I said, more 81 00:05:46,756 --> 00:05:48,551 laying the groundwork. 82 00:05:48,551 --> 00:05:53,039 So mapping efforts or funding is not guaranteed for any of these areas. 83 00:05:53,039 --> 00:05:56,031 This is just providing the recommendations for, 84 00:05:56,779 --> 00:06:00,070 you know, for future mapping for all stakeholders as well. 85 00:06:00,070 --> 00:06:03,062 So all the data we share with everyone. 86 00:06:03,062 --> 00:06:06,802 So once we receive everyone's input, we'll be able to create 87 00:06:06,802 --> 00:06:10,392 a spatial framework that summarizes participating agencies 88 00:06:10,990 --> 00:06:13,384 overlapping priorities 89 00:06:13,384 --> 00:06:17,572 and coupled with an inventory of existing high quality 90 00:06:18,021 --> 00:06:21,761 and contemporary mapping data, will be able to show and provide 91 00:06:22,659 --> 00:06:25,501 the necessary information for coral management organizations. 92 00:06:25,501 --> 00:06:30,288 to make any informed decisions on where to allocate funding to meet needs 93 00:06:30,737 --> 00:06:33,579 of not only their own organization, but overlapping 94 00:06:33,579 --> 00:06:36,571 needs of partnering agencies as well. 95 00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:41,358 So this is the basic objectives and outcomes for this project. 96 00:06:42,106 --> 00:06:46,743 CRCP saw that there was a need to kind of conduct this sort of analysis 97 00:06:46,743 --> 00:06:52,577 and not only use the data themselves potentially for future planning efforts, 98 00:06:52,577 --> 00:06:57,663 but also to provide this the service to to local stakeholders as well. 99 00:06:58,262 --> 00:07:01,702 I think I saw Francisco you, I think he's on the call. 100 00:07:02,002 --> 00:07:03,498 If you have anything to add, 101 00:07:05,143 --> 00:07:05,741 please do. 102 00:07:05,741 --> 00:07:08,733 If not, I will continue along. 103 00:07:09,332 --> 00:07:10,528 Thank you, Jen. 104 00:07:10,528 --> 00:07:13,520 I will just like to add that 105 00:07:13,969 --> 00:07:16,662 most of these efforts are 106 00:07:16,662 --> 00:07:19,803 focused towards management actions and management 107 00:07:19,803 --> 00:07:22,795 and supporting management of the resources 108 00:07:22,795 --> 00:07:25,787 and that's one of the main 109 00:07:26,984 --> 00:07:29,527 focus or objectives 110 00:07:29,527 --> 00:07:32,519 and looking into the outcomes into the future. 111 00:07:34,613 --> 00:07:35,211 Thank you so much. 112 00:07:35,211 --> 00:07:36,558 And Francisco. 113 00:07:36,558 --> 00:07:41,793 For those of you who don't know him, he's with CRCP and he's been a crucial, 114 00:07:42,242 --> 00:07:45,234 key part of getting this project funded and off the ground. 115 00:07:45,234 --> 00:07:48,974 So he's been key in getting this project going. 116 00:07:48,974 --> 00:07:51,517 So thank you for the extra notes. 117 00:07:51,517 --> 00:07:56,603 Francisco and yeah, I hope he'll be able to provide any to be specific questions. 118 00:07:57,501 --> 00:08:00,044 And then I guess if there are any. 119 00:08:00,044 --> 00:08:03,036 So moving ahead. 120 00:08:03,185 --> 00:08:07,673 So here I just wanted to show a brief overview of participating agencies. 121 00:08:07,673 --> 00:08:09,767 I think I got all of them on the slide. 122 00:08:09,767 --> 00:08:10,964 There might have been a few out 123 00:08:10,964 --> 00:08:13,657 at the last minute that I didn't get up here, so I apologize. 124 00:08:13,657 --> 00:08:17,097 But these are basically the participating agencies 125 00:08:17,097 --> 00:08:20,089 or groups or coral managers, if you will. 126 00:08:20,239 --> 00:08:24,727 So these are the folks who are our regional advisory team, 127 00:08:25,175 --> 00:08:28,766 has helped us identify these organizations who are crucial in 128 00:08:28,766 --> 00:08:33,104 making the region's coral reef management decisions to make sure we're engaging 129 00:08:33,104 --> 00:08:34,151 with the right people. 130 00:08:34,151 --> 00:08:37,891 So our advisory team consists of Francisco 131 00:08:37,891 --> 00:08:42,977 from the CRCP side, and we also have Jewel, who is our local American 132 00:08:42,977 --> 00:08:46,567 Samoa liaison, who I believe most of you probably know. 133 00:08:47,315 --> 00:08:51,354 So she's going to really help with local engagement and all that stuff. 134 00:08:51,354 --> 00:08:54,645 So I'm sure you'll be hearing from myself and from her as well as 135 00:08:54,645 --> 00:08:55,842 we go through this process. 136 00:08:57,787 --> 00:09:01,227 So this list or this group of people 137 00:09:01,826 --> 00:09:06,014 was created by evaluating many levels of coral management. 138 00:09:06,014 --> 00:09:09,605 So from scientists who provide critical scientific information 139 00:09:09,605 --> 00:09:13,644 to inform management decisions to the stakeholders and managers themselves. 140 00:09:13,644 --> 00:09:14,840 So, you know, 141 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,580 we try to include anyone and everyone that would have any kind of data needs 142 00:09:18,580 --> 00:09:22,021 when it comes to coral reef management or something related to it. So, 143 00:09:23,068 --> 00:09:25,761 you know, that's most of the if not everyone here today. 144 00:09:25,761 --> 00:09:27,556 So thank you all 145 00:09:27,556 --> 00:09:30,099 who have agreed to participate in 146 00:09:30,099 --> 00:09:33,091 are here interested to learn more 147 00:09:33,091 --> 00:09:36,980 because I think this will really, really help everyone that you see up here. 148 00:09:37,130 --> 00:09:41,019 All the agencies should be benefiting from this. 149 00:09:43,113 --> 00:09:45,806 So this slide just shows 150 00:09:45,806 --> 00:09:49,845 the four basic steps used in this prioritization process. 151 00:09:50,593 --> 00:09:54,333 So this we've already conducted in Guam and CNMI 152 00:09:54,333 --> 00:09:58,821 and my are wrapping that one up right now, Florida, Puerto Rico, U.S. 153 00:09:58,821 --> 00:10:01,513 Virgin Islands and Hawaii. So 154 00:10:02,561 --> 00:10:04,056 that's just to name a few. 155 00:10:04,056 --> 00:10:06,001 My office, NCCOS, have used 156 00:10:06,001 --> 00:10:09,741 these methods in many, many different areas from the Great Lakes 157 00:10:09,741 --> 00:10:16,173 all up and down the East Coast and Florida and Caribbean and the Pacific as well. 158 00:10:16,173 --> 00:10:20,362 So tride and true and these methods 159 00:10:20,362 --> 00:10:23,354 work really well for us in getting 160 00:10:23,504 --> 00:10:25,448 this data from local stakeholders. 161 00:10:25,448 --> 00:10:28,889 So I just want to briefly go over each step, just to give you 162 00:10:28,889 --> 00:10:31,881 an idea of how we're conducting this prioritization. 163 00:10:32,180 --> 00:10:34,573 So the first step, like I said, is to identify 164 00:10:34,573 --> 00:10:37,864 groups or agencies that were shown in the previous slide. 165 00:10:38,463 --> 00:10:42,651 So these are people whose input is crucial for meeting the goal of this project. 166 00:10:43,549 --> 00:10:45,643 And this step 167 00:10:45,643 --> 00:10:49,084 pretty much has already been completed, which is how we got to this point. 168 00:10:49,084 --> 00:10:52,674 Why you guys are all here interested in listening and on this webinar 169 00:10:52,674 --> 00:10:55,965 and you know, all the POC's we've reached out to 170 00:10:56,564 --> 00:11:00,154 who have agreed to participate on behalf. 171 00:11:01,650 --> 00:11:04,193 so that's, that's step one. 172 00:11:04,193 --> 00:11:08,082 Second step is to identify who within these groups will be participating. 173 00:11:08,082 --> 00:11:10,326 And that's everyone here today. 174 00:11:10,326 --> 00:11:13,617 And this third step is for each participating group 175 00:11:13,617 --> 00:11:16,908 to input their collective spatial priorities or data needs. 176 00:11:16,908 --> 00:11:21,396 So that's kind of why we're really here is is for the step three. 177 00:11:21,396 --> 00:11:24,388 You know, this is the most involved part of this process. 178 00:11:24,388 --> 00:11:27,529 So this for this project, this will be done 179 00:11:27,529 --> 00:11:31,120 by having one on one meetings with each participating group. 180 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,513 So again, I say groups because, 181 00:11:33,513 --> 00:11:37,253 you know, this is a mishmash of agencies and divisions and all that stuff. 182 00:11:37,253 --> 00:11:40,245 So when I say group, I just mean, you know, your 183 00:11:41,142 --> 00:11:44,134 your agency or your group, our division that you work with. 184 00:11:45,630 --> 00:11:46,528 And so, 185 00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:48,772 yeah, we'll have one on 186 00:11:48,772 --> 00:11:51,913 one meetings with each each of your groups, 187 00:11:52,661 --> 00:11:55,653 you and your colleagues in the POC that we've identified 188 00:11:55,653 --> 00:12:00,141 and already reached out to, we'll just have a virtual call and 189 00:12:00,739 --> 00:12:05,676 we'll go ahead and input your data needs into this online tool, which I will show. 190 00:12:05,676 --> 00:12:09,565 But you know, the point of these meetings, just to have a discussion 191 00:12:09,565 --> 00:12:13,305 with you all and get an idea for what your data needs are, 192 00:12:13,305 --> 00:12:15,998 and then we'll translate it into the online tool 193 00:12:15,998 --> 00:12:18,989 so that we can kind of do a more quantitative analysis. 194 00:12:20,934 --> 00:12:22,879 So the final part of the step is to follow up 195 00:12:22,879 --> 00:12:26,170 with participants, you all, to review their inputs 196 00:12:27,067 --> 00:12:32,154 and also to gather more detailed narrative on your mapping needs. 197 00:12:32,154 --> 00:12:35,893 So this can be specific Reef areas, projects, mandates 198 00:12:35,893 --> 00:12:39,633 or anything else not captured by was input into the tool. 199 00:12:41,728 --> 00:12:42,176 As you can 200 00:12:42,176 --> 00:12:45,318 see, you'll see that the tool can only capture so much, you know. 201 00:12:45,318 --> 00:12:48,908 And so when it comes to the real nitty gritty specifics of why you need data 202 00:12:48,908 --> 00:12:49,806 in these areas, that's 203 00:12:49,806 --> 00:12:53,396 when we're going to have more more of a detailed discussion later. 204 00:12:53,994 --> 00:12:57,136 And so once the spatial priorities are all into the tool, 205 00:12:58,033 --> 00:13:01,025 we download them, analyze them, 206 00:13:01,175 --> 00:13:04,017 and this will eventually become 207 00:13:04,017 --> 00:13:07,009 like the results in future recommendations 208 00:13:07,458 --> 00:13:11,945 summarized in a report and shared with CRCP. 209 00:13:11,945 --> 00:13:15,536 And in all of you, all the local management agencies and partners 210 00:13:16,134 --> 00:13:20,023 who can use this information for planning and supporting future projects. 211 00:13:20,023 --> 00:13:25,558 So we usually share the results 212 00:13:27,054 --> 00:13:30,345 as soon as we get them, kind of as preliminary results. 213 00:13:30,345 --> 00:13:32,140 And then the report comes much later. 214 00:13:32,140 --> 00:13:34,384 But we do share those results as soon as we can. 215 00:13:37,825 --> 00:13:40,817 And yeah, everything's made public as well. 216 00:13:41,116 --> 00:13:44,108 Okay, that's, that's it for that. 217 00:13:44,108 --> 00:13:46,202 So just real quick, the project area. 218 00:13:46,202 --> 00:13:49,194 So this entire project spans 219 00:13:49,194 --> 00:13:52,186 from f Y 21 to 23. 220 00:13:52,186 --> 00:13:55,178 So kind of taking a step back and looking at 221 00:13:55,477 --> 00:13:57,870 the main overall objective of this 222 00:13:57,870 --> 00:14:01,162 project was to cover all seven of the U.S. 223 00:14:01,162 --> 00:14:02,657 coral reef jurisdictions. 224 00:14:02,657 --> 00:14:06,547 And so the first of which that we've already completed, 225 00:14:06,996 --> 00:14:10,287 Florida, Puerto Rico, Usvi and Hawaii are all completed. 226 00:14:11,035 --> 00:14:14,027 The Hawaii report is being buttoned up right now. 227 00:14:14,176 --> 00:14:16,121 It's a NOAA technical memorandum. 228 00:14:16,121 --> 00:14:19,113 Once that gets out, you know, that'll be made public. 229 00:14:19,113 --> 00:14:22,703 And so I'll try to share it with this group as well. 230 00:14:22,703 --> 00:14:26,144 If anybody here has any interests in Hawaii, 231 00:14:26,443 --> 00:14:29,435 you'll have it. 232 00:14:29,883 --> 00:14:32,576 And we're currently finishing up gathering inputs 233 00:14:32,576 --> 00:14:36,765 for Guam and CNMI, and now we're focusing this effort on American Samoa. 234 00:14:38,709 --> 00:14:39,158 So we're 235 00:14:39,158 --> 00:14:42,300 only focusing this effort on shallow, coral reef areas. 236 00:14:42,300 --> 00:14:45,291 So depths of 0 to 40 meters. 237 00:14:46,189 --> 00:14:48,732 This graphic here shows the 40 238 00:14:48,732 --> 00:14:51,724 meter depth contour to that red line. 239 00:14:52,023 --> 00:14:54,117 We know it's really close to shore, but we, 240 00:14:54,117 --> 00:14:57,558 you know, do do recognize that there's a need for shallow for coral reef areas 241 00:14:57,558 --> 00:15:00,550 and that's why we are focusing this effort on just those regions. 242 00:15:02,046 --> 00:15:05,038 And so this 243 00:15:05,038 --> 00:15:08,030 this surrounds all federally managed waters. 244 00:15:08,329 --> 00:15:11,470 So for American Samoa, that includes the islands you see here 245 00:15:11,470 --> 00:15:14,911 including Swains Island and Rose Atoll. 246 00:15:19,548 --> 00:15:20,147 Okay. 247 00:15:20,147 --> 00:15:23,886 So just some basic details of the web tool itself. 248 00:15:24,335 --> 00:15:25,682 Like I said, when we get together 249 00:15:25,682 --> 00:15:28,823 for a one on one meetings with with all of your groups, 250 00:15:29,870 --> 00:15:32,413 I can be managing this tool 251 00:15:32,413 --> 00:15:36,303 and kind of running it and with your direction on where to put coins. 252 00:15:36,303 --> 00:15:39,594 But I just wanted to kind of give you a better understanding 253 00:15:39,594 --> 00:15:42,586 of how the tool works so that you can give me, 254 00:15:42,735 --> 00:15:45,727 you know, sort of be easier to to give me feedback and direction. 255 00:15:45,727 --> 00:15:47,971 You know what we're doing and you understand what we're doing. 256 00:15:49,766 --> 00:15:51,412 So in general, what we do is 257 00:15:51,412 --> 00:15:55,301 we give each agency or group of participants 258 00:15:56,647 --> 00:15:59,639 a set number of virtual coins, we call them. 259 00:15:59,789 --> 00:16:03,080 These coins are then placed into grid cells to indicate 260 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,072 when and where data is needed. 261 00:16:06,072 --> 00:16:08,615 So when 262 00:16:08,615 --> 00:16:13,402 you know the more coins you input into a grid cell, the sooner you need data. 263 00:16:13,402 --> 00:16:17,441 And then where is obviously the spatial component. Within the tool 264 00:16:17,441 --> 00:16:21,629 There's also dropdown lists indicate intended coral reef management uses 265 00:16:22,677 --> 00:16:26,416 and the specific mapping data requirements 266 00:16:26,716 --> 00:16:29,707 that new data would have could potentially fill. 267 00:16:29,707 --> 00:16:31,802 And I'll provide more information on what these are. 268 00:16:31,802 --> 00:16:34,494 We've got a dropdown list with some definitions 269 00:16:34,494 --> 00:16:38,533 that you can look at ahead of time and I can help you 270 00:16:38,533 --> 00:16:41,824 kind of navigate which one would be best for your group if you don't know. 271 00:16:43,769 --> 00:16:45,265 So each participating group 272 00:16:45,265 --> 00:16:49,155 or agency has the same number of coins. 273 00:16:49,603 --> 00:16:53,642 So for example, the National Park Service, they'll have 50 coins, 274 00:16:54,989 --> 00:16:56,485 the EPA will have 50 coins. 275 00:16:56,485 --> 00:16:58,579 So each group will have their own 276 00:16:58,579 --> 00:17:01,720 set of 50 coins that they can spend however they want. 277 00:17:02,618 --> 00:17:06,059 The number of coins is determined by the number of cells in each region. 278 00:17:06,059 --> 00:17:07,405 So that's kind of how we get 50. 279 00:17:07,405 --> 00:17:11,444 Not to get into the math too much, but that's just kind of how we standardize 280 00:17:11,444 --> 00:17:14,436 it across all the different regions of different sizes 281 00:17:15,184 --> 00:17:18,176 and different areas. 282 00:17:18,475 --> 00:17:19,971 The web tool will also have 283 00:17:19,971 --> 00:17:23,860 all this information as well and tracks kind of how many coins you have left 284 00:17:23,860 --> 00:17:26,852 and how many you've already input or allocated. 285 00:17:26,852 --> 00:17:29,545 So you know, we don't have to do the math in our heads. 286 00:17:30,891 --> 00:17:33,285 So yeah. 287 00:17:33,285 --> 00:17:38,071 And then we also set a limit on how many coins can be input into a cell, 288 00:17:38,071 --> 00:17:39,119 which is five. 289 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,410 So this limit basically 290 00:17:42,410 --> 00:17:45,850 is just to encourage people to select more than one area or cell. 291 00:17:46,449 --> 00:17:49,441 So that's, that's yeah, that's it. 292 00:17:51,086 --> 00:17:54,078 So as I said, to indicate how quickly data is needed, 293 00:17:54,078 --> 00:17:57,070 the more coins you input, the higher the data needs are. 294 00:17:57,967 --> 00:18:02,006 So for American Samoa, if you put the max of five coins 295 00:18:02,006 --> 00:18:05,597 into a cell, that means you need data there urgently or soon as possible. 296 00:18:05,597 --> 00:18:08,140 So that's kind of how that works. 297 00:18:08,140 --> 00:18:09,486 And we do have instructions. 298 00:18:09,486 --> 00:18:13,076 But again, I'll be in all these meetings and will pretty much run the tool 299 00:18:13,824 --> 00:18:16,816 with your direction. 300 00:18:18,013 --> 00:18:18,910 So here 301 00:18:18,910 --> 00:18:21,902 just wanted to give a perspective of the grid cell size 302 00:18:22,201 --> 00:18:26,839 using Tutuila as an example, although the grid sizes may seem 303 00:18:27,288 --> 00:18:31,476 large compared to, you know, certain features or specific colonies 304 00:18:32,823 --> 00:18:35,066 of corals in order to get an overall idea. 305 00:18:35,066 --> 00:18:35,964 Spatial priorities, 306 00:18:35,964 --> 00:18:39,853 we needed to kind of take a step back and look at a slightly larger resolution. 307 00:18:39,853 --> 00:18:42,995 So we went with a 308 00:18:43,144 --> 00:18:47,034 hexagon grid that's about a square mile in area 309 00:18:47,034 --> 00:18:50,026 or a kilometer per per side. 310 00:18:51,970 --> 00:18:54,065 So we recognize that only a portion of the cell 311 00:18:54,065 --> 00:18:57,057 may be of interest, such as specific reefs. 312 00:18:57,206 --> 00:19:01,245 But our objective is to just become aware of important areas that are data poor. 313 00:19:01,245 --> 00:19:02,891 And this is just one piece that will help us 314 00:19:02,891 --> 00:19:04,835 start to focus in on these priority areas. 315 00:19:04,835 --> 00:19:06,930 We'll look at existing data and all that stuff as well. 316 00:19:06,930 --> 00:19:10,969 So, you know, if one hexagon cell comes out 317 00:19:10,969 --> 00:19:15,457 as important, we're not going to just map, you know, 318 00:19:15,606 --> 00:19:19,645 we're not going to recommend just mapping within the confines of that hexagon cell. 319 00:19:19,645 --> 00:19:19,944 It's more of 320 00:19:19,944 --> 00:19:23,983 just kind of getting us more information on these areas that our data poor. 321 00:19:26,078 --> 00:19:28,920 So and 322 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,762 to that note as while they're also cells containing a lot of land. 323 00:19:31,762 --> 00:19:34,455 But again, because of the way the grid fits together, 324 00:19:34,455 --> 00:19:36,250 we need that to kind of capture the coastal edge. 325 00:19:36,250 --> 00:19:37,596 So we're keeping the cells. 326 00:19:37,596 --> 00:19:41,187 But again, you know, if these cells come up as high priority, 327 00:19:41,187 --> 00:19:44,178 well, we'll make sure that to get more information and 328 00:19:45,226 --> 00:19:48,367 what data gaps we're trying to fill. 329 00:19:51,060 --> 00:19:51,658 All right. 330 00:19:51,658 --> 00:19:54,500 So here, as I mentioned before, 331 00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:58,240 are the dropdown options that we'll provide in the tool 332 00:19:58,539 --> 00:20:02,279 these will be input with the coins into the selected cells. 333 00:20:02,279 --> 00:20:06,019 So you'll select the cell, put however many coins you want in there, 334 00:20:06,019 --> 00:20:09,460 and then you'll select these options to go along with it. 335 00:20:09,460 --> 00:20:11,853 And so this just tells us more information on 336 00:20:13,499 --> 00:20:13,948 how you 337 00:20:13,948 --> 00:20:17,089 will use this data to inform coral reef management decisions. 338 00:20:17,089 --> 00:20:20,230 So that's the first option of dropdowns for management use. 339 00:20:20,679 --> 00:20:23,671 And then the second dropdown option is map 340 00:20:23,671 --> 00:20:26,962 product requirements, which tells us what kind of product is needed 341 00:20:26,962 --> 00:20:31,001 and what are your product requirements you're trying to achieve. So, 342 00:20:32,198 --> 00:20:35,938 you know, kind of do your best guess if you really don't know if none of these 343 00:20:35,938 --> 00:20:39,827 are, you know, really speaking to you, we can definitely work through some and 344 00:20:41,473 --> 00:20:46,110 kind of see what would be the best option for you if you're not sure. 345 00:20:46,110 --> 00:20:49,551 But yeah, take a look at these before we have our one on one meetings 346 00:20:49,551 --> 00:20:52,692 and then we'll try to try 347 00:20:52,692 --> 00:20:55,684 to get there together. 348 00:20:56,282 --> 00:20:57,778 There's also instructions 349 00:20:57,778 --> 00:21:02,416 which I'll share out before our next call, and you can find more detailed 350 00:21:02,416 --> 00:21:07,651 descriptions of each of these in the instructions as well. So 351 00:21:10,045 --> 00:21:10,643 the list 352 00:21:10,643 --> 00:21:14,383 of MAP product requirements is also listed in order from large scale resolution. 353 00:21:14,383 --> 00:21:17,824 So more regional data coarser imagery to finer scale 354 00:21:19,021 --> 00:21:22,760 data such as DEMs photo mosaics and other high resolution products. 355 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,248 So that's kind of another way to look at this if that's helpful. 356 00:21:28,146 --> 00:21:30,689 And ultimately this type of information is is crucial 357 00:21:30,689 --> 00:21:34,429 in understanding exactly what kind of data and products are needed, 358 00:21:34,578 --> 00:21:37,869 why they're needed to help with collaborations 359 00:21:37,869 --> 00:21:40,861 in project planning. 360 00:21:44,302 --> 00:21:46,097 And if you have these slides, 361 00:21:46,097 --> 00:21:49,089 I think I attached slides to the 362 00:21:49,837 --> 00:21:52,829 the meeting so you can click on the link here 363 00:21:52,829 --> 00:21:55,820 to view the instructions if you want. 364 00:21:58,214 --> 00:21:58,513 Okay. 365 00:21:58,513 --> 00:22:01,655 So in the background data is or the web. 366 00:22:01,804 --> 00:22:05,394 So in the web tool, we also provide an inventory 367 00:22:05,394 --> 00:22:09,134 of mapping data to help participants with their decision making. 368 00:22:09,134 --> 00:22:15,268 So that's kind of one of the the big key elements of this effort is to first 369 00:22:16,614 --> 00:22:19,307 go through and see 370 00:22:19,307 --> 00:22:24,094 what data exists, how old is the data and kind of try 371 00:22:24,094 --> 00:22:27,983 to represent it in a way that would be helpful for participants 372 00:22:29,180 --> 00:22:33,817 choose cells and make decisions and also to, you know, kind of also provide 373 00:22:33,817 --> 00:22:39,352 a service of here's existing data and planned data as well and plan mapping projects. 374 00:22:39,352 --> 00:22:42,793 So I'll show you where that is in the Web tool. 375 00:22:42,793 --> 00:22:45,485 We also have it on our hub page as well for anyone to view. 376 00:22:45,485 --> 00:22:47,580 So this is all public. 377 00:22:47,580 --> 00:22:50,721 This basically includes all the high quality benthic 378 00:22:50,721 --> 00:22:54,610 mapping data and other relevant data sets that can be used to help with your input. 379 00:22:54,610 --> 00:22:57,303 So we have habitat maps in here as well. 380 00:22:57,303 --> 00:22:59,996 This is all again, public data. 381 00:22:59,996 --> 00:23:02,988 And if it's not public yet, we try to represent it 382 00:23:02,988 --> 00:23:06,428 in in some way like a footprint or something.

So 444 00:26:41,543 --> 00:26:44,236 on the left here, there's legend. 445 00:26:44,236 --> 00:26:47,377 So if you have any 446 00:26:47,527 --> 00:26:50,968 any surfaces on that will pop up on the legend here. 447 00:26:51,267 --> 00:26:53,361 So you can look at all of the bathymetry layers 448 00:26:53,361 --> 00:26:58,148 We've collected, the habitat maps and then we also have some just 449 00:26:58,148 --> 00:27:01,738 other boundary layers that we found online that we wanted to include, 450 00:27:02,486 --> 00:27:04,730 you know, the EEZ 451 00:27:04,730 --> 00:27:07,124 marine protected area inventory, 452 00:27:07,124 --> 00:27:10,116 that kind of stuff that we thought might be helpful 453 00:27:10,415 --> 00:27:13,855 if you don't want to view it through this interface here. 454 00:27:14,155 --> 00:27:15,052 Again, this should be public 455 00:27:15,052 --> 00:27:18,044 and everyone should be able to view it just as I am now. 456 00:27:18,343 --> 00:27:21,784 If you wanted to view it and the web map, you can click on that 457 00:27:22,981 --> 00:27:23,728 button there. 458 00:27:23,728 --> 00:27:26,571 If if you're familiar with ArcGIS online, 459 00:27:26,571 --> 00:27:29,563 this is maybe a little bit more familiar to 460 00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:33,751 to some of you. So 461 00:27:33,751 --> 00:27:36,893 this is just same data, just a different way to view it 462 00:27:37,491 --> 00:27:40,483 if you're, you know, more comfortable with this. 463 00:27:43,176 --> 00:27:45,419 And then if you scroll down, we have all the inventories 464 00:27:45,419 --> 00:27:50,954 from previous jurisdictions as well, Guam and CNMI we did together. 465 00:27:50,954 --> 00:27:53,946 So they're kind of lumped here. 466 00:27:54,844 --> 00:27:56,190 And then then Hawaii and yeah, 467 00:27:56,190 --> 00:27:59,182 so you can scroll down and see the rest of them. So, 468 00:27:59,780 --> 00:28:02,324 so all that is there. 469 00:28:02,324 --> 00:28:06,811 The next tab up at the top are the results. 470 00:28:07,410 --> 00:28:11,299 So there's a couple of ways that you can review the results 471 00:28:11,299 --> 00:28:14,441 so you can view it in a ArcGIS online dashboard, 472 00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:17,582 so I'll just pull it up real quick. 473 00:28:17,582 --> 00:28:19,527 So this is kind of what we went over for. 474 00:28:19,527 --> 00:28:22,967 The if you watched the webinar for the results, we go through 475 00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:26,109 kind of how to navigate this dashboard and view all the different layers. 476 00:28:28,203 --> 00:28:29,549 But in general, yeah, 477 00:28:29,549 --> 00:28:33,439 if you wanted to kind of click around and, and explore the data sets 478 00:28:34,037 --> 00:28:36,730 this way, we're going to do the same for American Samoa. 479 00:28:36,730 --> 00:28:39,722 So, you know, we just wanted to provide it 480 00:28:39,722 --> 00:28:42,714 as an easy way to view the data. 481 00:28:42,714 --> 00:28:44,658 You can also just download the data as well 482 00:28:44,658 --> 00:28:48,548 if you want to input it into ArcPro or ArcMap on your own desktop 483 00:28:49,146 --> 00:28:51,540 or actually us online and view it that way. 484 00:28:51,540 --> 00:28:53,185 So there's a couple ways we read the data. 485 00:28:53,185 --> 00:28:56,177 And again, if you scroll down, you'll see 486 00:28:56,476 --> 00:28:59,468 all the different jurisdictions we've completed 487 00:29:00,216 --> 00:29:04,255 and then if there's a report, you can also click on the link there 488 00:29:04,255 --> 00:29:08,593 and it'll take you to the online, the report online. 489 00:29:09,042 --> 00:29:10,837 So like I said Hawaii, 490 00:29:12,632 --> 00:29:14,727 Hawaii is almost complete. 491 00:29:14,727 --> 00:29:19,065 So link for that will be up soon, hopefully in the next week even maybe. 492 00:29:19,663 --> 00:29:22,805 And then for 493 00:29:22,805 --> 00:29:25,796 for American Samoa, we're going to be doing 494 00:29:26,096 --> 00:29:30,284 a report that also includes the results from Guam and CNMI 495 00:29:30,583 --> 00:29:33,575 they are going to be 496 00:29:33,575 --> 00:29:38,063 separate efforts obviously they are and but we wanted to kind of lump them all 497 00:29:38,063 --> 00:29:41,803 into a one big Pacific report, essentially. 498 00:29:41,803 --> 00:29:44,346 So that'll come up towards the end of the year. 499 00:29:44,346 --> 00:29:47,637 But like I said, we'll we'll share the results with everyone 500 00:29:49,283 --> 00:29:51,526 as soon as they're ready. 501 00:29:51,526 --> 00:29:54,369 And the next tab 502 00:29:54,369 --> 00:29:57,211 is for the Web tool itself. 503 00:29:57,211 --> 00:30:03,344 So if you wanted to click so 504 00:30:05,439 --> 00:30:07,832 I encourage you to click on this and explore. 505 00:30:07,832 --> 00:30:11,123 This is what we're going to go over when we have our one on one meeting. 506 00:30:11,123 --> 00:30:13,517 So I'm not going to spend too much time on this. 507 00:30:15,013 --> 00:30:16,509 So the way that'll 508 00:30:16,509 --> 00:30:19,500 kind of work is, is I'll be driving the web tool 509 00:30:20,248 --> 00:30:22,642 and you guys will 510 00:30:22,642 --> 00:30:27,429 just kind of each group will direct me to where you want your coins to go 511 00:30:28,027 --> 00:30:31,169 so that we can have more of a discussion on what your needs are. 512 00:30:31,169 --> 00:30:33,861 And I can answer any questions as well. 513 00:30:33,861 --> 00:30:36,554 I find that to be pretty helpful just to have these meetings 514 00:30:36,554 --> 00:30:39,546 and kind of do these these mini 515 00:30:40,892 --> 00:30:41,939 yeah, these mini chats. 516 00:30:41,939 --> 00:30:48,671 So but you can click on this link and so view most of what this tool has to offer. 517 00:30:48,671 --> 00:30:51,663 So this basic splash page. 518 00:30:53,608 --> 00:30:56,749 So I'm just going to kind of go over a few functions 519 00:30:56,749 --> 00:30:59,143 just so when we go over this, 520 00:30:59,143 --> 00:31:02,134 when we have our one on one meetings, you kind of understand what we're doing. 521 00:31:03,481 --> 00:31:04,378 So all these 522 00:31:04,378 --> 00:31:07,819 background layers are integrated into this web tool. 523 00:31:07,819 --> 00:31:11,559 So, you know, this is another way you can view it if you wanted to, 524 00:31:11,708 --> 00:31:16,047 to look at this this is all public facing so you can go through and click 525 00:31:16,047 --> 00:31:19,338 on any of, you know, habitat maps. 526 00:31:20,086 --> 00:31:23,227 It zoomed out pretty far just because we wanted to include 527 00:31:23,975 --> 00:31:26,967 Swain's Island and Rose Atoll. 528 00:31:27,416 --> 00:31:31,754 But yeah, so you can you can zoom into area of interest 529 00:31:32,053 --> 00:31:35,793 and turn on all these layers if it's helpful for you. 530 00:31:38,037 --> 00:31:41,029 And same thing with the legend 531 00:31:42,973 --> 00:31:47,012 Whatever surface you have on will show up in the legend as well. 532 00:31:47,012 --> 00:31:54,193 So over here on the left, there's a few other buttons that might be helpful. 533 00:31:54,193 --> 00:31:55,838 There's a bookmark button. 534 00:31:55,838 --> 00:31:59,578 So if you wanted to get to some of the islands or atolls 535 00:32:00,476 --> 00:32:02,869 a little bit quicker instead of scrolling through, you could just click on those. 536 00:32:02,869 --> 00:32:06,011 It'll take you directly to it or just back to the 537 00:32:06,609 --> 00:32:09,152 home overview, if you will. 538 00:32:10,947 --> 00:32:12,443 There is an add data button. 539 00:32:12,443 --> 00:32:17,230 So if we're going through this exercise with you 540 00:32:17,230 --> 00:32:20,521 and you realize there's a data set that would be really important 541 00:32:20,521 --> 00:32:24,261 for your decision making in this process, we can certainly add 542 00:32:24,261 --> 00:32:27,253 that using this button. 543 00:32:27,402 --> 00:32:30,095 So that's, that's always an option as well. 544 00:32:30,095 --> 00:32:33,386 The Base Map gallery, if you're familiar with ArcGIS Online 545 00:32:33,685 --> 00:32:37,126 or even ArcPro listing of all your standard base maps, 546 00:32:38,173 --> 00:32:39,819 some are more useful than others. 547 00:32:39,819 --> 00:32:42,511 I don't know if the mid-century map is useful, 548 00:32:42,511 --> 00:32:45,354 but if it is, we have a way to make that happen. 549 00:32:45,354 --> 00:32:49,243 So I think oceans is the default. 550 00:32:50,739 --> 00:32:51,637 Or maybe it's base map. 551 00:32:51,637 --> 00:32:53,880 But anyway, bunch of different options. 552 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,676 The NOAA 553 00:32:55,676 --> 00:32:58,667 ENC charts can be a helpful one 554 00:32:58,667 --> 00:33:02,856 and maybe even more detailed contour maps. So 555 00:33:05,399 --> 00:33:08,241 there is the measurement tool 556 00:33:08,241 --> 00:33:10,037 for, you know, if you need to measure something. 557 00:33:10,037 --> 00:33:15,123 And then last but not least is this prioritization tool. 558 00:33:16,619 --> 00:33:18,414 So if if anybody here 559 00:33:18,414 --> 00:33:21,705 clicks on this, you're probably not going to have access. 560 00:33:21,705 --> 00:33:25,744 We like I said, I'll go ahead and drive this part of the tool, 561 00:33:25,744 --> 00:33:28,736 but I just wanted to kind of show you what it's going to look like 562 00:33:28,885 --> 00:33:32,475 and how we're going to go through allocating coins and how that works. 563 00:33:34,420 --> 00:33:37,412 So I just need to sign in. 564 00:33:46,088 --> 00:33:47,734 And there's always an option to 565 00:33:47,734 --> 00:33:50,726 if we meet and, you know, don't 566 00:33:51,623 --> 00:33:54,615 don't complete all of our inputs. 567 00:33:55,962 --> 00:33:57,906 You know, the there's always the option. 568 00:33:57,906 --> 00:34:01,646 I can give you guys access to your coins as well and 569 00:34:03,441 --> 00:34:06,284 and then 570 00:34:06,284 --> 00:34:08,378 you can access this web tool. 571 00:34:10,323 --> 00:34:13,314 So I'm not sure why it's not showing up. 572 00:34:13,464 --> 00:34:15,857 This worked yesterday. 573 00:34:15,857 --> 00:34:18,849 So let me refresh and try again. 574 00:34:34,856 --> 00:34:35,604 All right. 575 00:34:35,604 --> 00:34:38,446 That looks better.
