This map highlights 8962 stations with monthly discharge data, including data derived daily up to 20 December 2013. The GRDB (Global Runoff DataBase) is built on an initial dataset collected in the early 1980s from the responses to WMO (World Meteorological Organization request to its member countries to provide a global hydrological data set to complement a specific set of atmospheric data in the framework of the First Global GARP Experiment (FCGE). The initial dataset of monthly river discharge data over a period of several years around 1980 was supplemented with the UNESCO monthly river discharge data collection 1965-85. Today the database comprises discharge data of nearly 9.000 gauging stations from all over the world. Since 1993 the total number of station-years has increased by a factor of around 10.Credits and partnerships:OSU - College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric SciencesCarniege Corporation of New YGloabl orkNASCE - Northwest Alliance for Computational Science & EngineeringInternational Water Management InstituteUNESCO - United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural OrganisationUSGS - United States Geological Survey

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, or MCDA, is a useful methodology that can apply to many complex decisions.

Geographic Information Systems multi-criteria decision analysis GIS-MCDA consists of a method to convert and combine spatial data/geographical information and decision-makers criteria to attain evidence for a decision-making process. GIS capabilities are enhanced by MCDA procedures, techniques, and algorithms for structuring decision problems, to design, evaluate and prioritize alternatives.

Integration of GIS and MCDA provides a replicable model, improves communication between project participants or decision-makers, can offer a different perspective of problem and solution, helping to redefine initial specification and/or criteria.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has compiled a geodatabase containing mineral-related geospatial data for 19 countries of interest in the Indo-Pacific region (area of study): Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Burma, Fiji, Malaysia, Mongolia, Nauru, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Solomon Islands, South Korea (Republic of Korea), Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam. The data can be used in analyses of the extractive fuel and nonfuel mineral industries integral for the successful operation of the mineral industries within the area of study. This geodatabase reflects the USGS ongoing commitment to its mission of understanding the nature and distribution of global mineral commodity supply chains by updating and publishing the georeferenced locations of mineral commodity production and processing facilities, mineral exploration sites, and mineral sites and processing facilities under development for the countries in the area of study. The geodatabase contains data feature classes from USGS, foreign governmental, and open-source sources as follows: (1) mineral production and processing facilities, (2) mineral exploration sites, (3) mineral production and processing facilities under development, (4) undiscovered mineral resource tracts for copper, (5) coal occurrence areas, (6) undiscovered, technically recoverable conventional and continuous hydrocarbon resources (by USGS geologic province), and (7) cumulative production and recoverable conventional resources (by province groups).

Poverty Incidence is the proportion of individuals with per capita income less than the poverty thresholds. Data on poverty is compiled by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) which is made available every three (3) years. The main source of data used in coming out of the poverty estimates are the triennial Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES), quarterly Labour Force Survey (LFS) and Consumer Price Index (CPI), and the Annual Poverty Indicator Survey (APIS).

A database (NDP-068) was generated from estimates of geographically referenced carbon densities of forest vegetation in tropical Southeast Asia for 1980. A geographic information system (GIS) was used to incorporate spatial databases of climatic, edaphic, and geomorphological indices and vegetation to estimate potential (i.e., in the absence of human intervention and natural disturbance) carbon densities of forests. The resulting map was then modified to estimate actual 1980 carbon density as a function of population density and climatic zone. The database covers the following 13 countries: Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia (Campuchea), India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar (Burma), Nepal, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The data sets within this database are provided in three file formats: ARC/INFOTM exported integer grids; ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) files formatted for raster-based GIS software packages; and generic ASCII files with x, y coordinates for use with non-GIS software packages.

The database includes ten ARC/INFO exported integer grid files (five with the pixel size 3.75 km x 3.75 km and five with the pixel size 0.25 degree longitude x 0.25 degree latitude) and 27 ASCII files. The first ASCII file contains the documentation associated with this database. Twenty-four of the ASCII files were generated by means of the ARC/INFO GRIDASCII command and can be used by most raster-based GIS software packages. The 24 files can be subdivided into two groups of 12 files each.

The files contain real data values representing actual carbon and potential carbon density in Mg C/ha (1 megagram = 10^6 grams) and integer-coded values for country name, Weck's Climatic Index, ecofloristic zone, elevation, forest or non- forest designation, population density, mean annual precipitation, slope, soil texture, and vegetation classification. One set of 12 files contains these data at a spatial resolution of 3.75 km, whereas the other set of 12 files has a spatial resolution of 0.25 degree. The remaining two ASCII data files combine all of the data from the 24 ASCII data files into 2 single generic data files. The first file has a spatial resolution of 3.75 km, and the second has a resolution of 0.25 degree. Both files also provide a grid-cell identification number and the longitude and latitude of the centerpoint of each grid cell.

The 3.75-km data in this numeric data package yield an actual total carbon estimate of 42.1 Pg (1 petagram = 10^15 grams) and a potential carbon estimate of 73.6 Pg; whereas the 0.25-degree data produced an actual total carbon estimate of 41.8 Pg and a total potential carbon estimate of 73.9 Pg.

Fortran and SASTM access codes are provided to read the ASCII data files, and ARC/INFO and ARCVIEW command syntax are provided to import the ARC/INFO exported integer grid files. The data files and this documentation are available without charge on a variety of media and via the Internet from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC).

This dataset provides detailed information on road surfaces from OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, distinguishing between paved and unpaved surfaces across the region. This information is based on road surface prediction derived from hybrid deep learning approach. For more information on Methods, refer to the paper

Roughly 0.4963 million km of roads are mapped in OSM in this region. Based on AI-mapped estimates the share of paved and unpaved roads is approximately 0.0815 and 0.0513 (in million kms), corressponding to 16.4302% and 10.3289% respectively of the total road length in the dataset region. 0.3635 million km or 73.241% of road surface information is missing in OSM. In order to fill this gap, Mapillary derived road surface dataset provides an additional 0.0024 million km of information (corressponding to 0.6728% of total missing information on road surface)

It is intended for use in transportation planning, infrastructure analysis, climate emissions and geographic information system (GIS) applications.
