Objective
ArcticConnect is a CANARIE Network-Enabled Platform (NEP) project with the Arctic Institute of North America and Cybera, Inc. It is a set of tools and applications for improving geospatial visualization of data and research related to the arctic. The GeoSensorWeb Lab assisted in building multiple parts of the project.
Description
PolarMap.js is a part of ArcticWebMap, as a plugin for Leaflet.js to make integrating arctic maps easy.
ArcticWebMap: ArcticWebMap is a free tile server for OpenStreetMap data re-projected into multiple arctic-focused projections. This improves the display of shapes closer to the north pole. The tile server is actively maintained by the GeoSensorWeb Lab.
ArcticScholar: ArcticScholar is a database of research and publications related to the arctic. The ArcticScholar database is maintained by the Arctic Institute of North America.
ArcticSensorWeb: ArcticSensorWeb lists various sensors from arctic sources. Data is from Environment Canada, INTERACT, and the Arctic Institute of North America.
ArcticBioMap: ArcticBioMap is a citizen reporting and data sharing mobile application for northern communities to collect biodiversity data and share it with researchers at the University of Calgary.
