Indicators
Synthesizing raw observations into Essential Biodiversity Variables and Essential Ocean Variables for policy-relevant reporting.
Learn moreEco-Indicators
Linking marine biodiversity observations to ecosystem service indicators for integrated ocean assessment.
Learn moreData Management
Ensuring MBON observational data are FAIR — Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable — from sensor to archive.

STAC-SDM
A STAC extension that describes species distribution models (range, habitat-suitability or density) — what the value means, how it was modeled, which taxon, and the month or season it predicts.
Learn moreplaces gazetteer
One STAC catalog of marine place layers (sanctuaries, MPAs, EEZs, leases, planning areas) as GeoParquet and PMTiles, with stable place ids, per-feature licence and H3 membership for joining hexagon data by place.
Learn more
OceanMetrics Atlas
A browser map of species distribution and biodiversity model outputs, read from a STAC catalog. It opens on the AquaMaps EOV share and hosts the MBON BioTrack indicators (species richness and uncertainty from telemetry and OBIS).
Learn moreMarine Sensitivity Toolkit
A catalog and atlas of marine species distribution models and sensitivity scores for U.S. waters, harmonized with STAC-SDM into cloud-optimized GeoTIFF and GeoParquet.

Reproducible Reporting with R (R3)
Training materials for Reproducible Reporting with R (R3) — building reproducible marine ecosystem indicator reports.
Learn more
MBON Data Reports
Automated, reproducible data summary reports for MBON datasets.
Learn more
Global Marine Biodiversity Indicators
Prototype global marine biodiversity indicators derived from open occurrence data.
Learn more
py-dwc-viz
Python tool for visualizing Darwin Core biodiversity occurrence data.
Learn more
Sanctuary Eco-Indicators
Multivariate ordination workflows summarizing ecological indicators across the U.S. National Marine Sanctuaries (in development).
Learn more
erddap-places
Place statistics from ERDDAP gridded and tabular data for sanctuaries and other marine places, computed in your browser, plus a Then vs Now lens for sanctuary sea surface temperature. The URL is the view.
Learn more
OBIS hex
Biodiversity indicators from every OBIS record on H3 hexagons, from ES(50) to records per decade, computed from Parquet in your browser with no server. The URL is the view.
Learn more
obisindicators
R package for generating biodiversity indicators — including ES(50) estimated species richness — from OBIS occurrence data.
Learn more
ecoidx
R package implementing NOAA Integrated Ecosystem Assessment (IEA) indicator standards — workflows and visualizations for marine ecological indicators.
