Spatial information and questionnaire data from coral farms and restoration sites in Indonesia 2024
Description
Data relating to a detailed scientific report and an ArcGIS storyMap created by the Indonesian Coral Reef Foundation (TERANGI) and Centre for Environment Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (Cefas). This is the results from a 2-day workshop and interviews with staff from coral farms and restoration sites to gather evidence to inform policy recommendations for the establishment of an effective national network for propagated coral exchange in Indonesia. This work supports progress towards sustainable international trade and to contribute to coral reef conservation in the world’s epicentre of marine biodiversity. The project directly supports the conservation of coral reefs in Indonesia and assist in the meeting of CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of wild fauna and flora) trade permit conditions. Both UK industry and the UK’s CITES Scientific Authority (Joint Nature Conservation Committee) will benefit from strengthening the supply of farmed coral to conservation initiatives as evidence for a responsible and sustainable coral trade.
Data include names and locations of interviews of coral farms and restoration projects in Indonesia in February 2024 with further information on operational activity with information such as do the coral farms have their own restoration site, what restoration site do they farmers give to, do they cover transport, the species given, how long they have been operational, in, the size of the coral, challenges of the business and recommendations to improve the collaboration between farmers and restoration sites. These data are available upon request. Following an online knowledge exchange workshop, field visits were conducted throughout February 2024 to interview and collect data from coral farmers and reef restoration projects across Indonesia. The aim of the interviews was to identify best practices, challenges, and opportunities associated with different operational models for coral reef restoration. Data collected from interviews of coral farmers and translated into English. From this a scientific report and an ArcGIS storyMap on the Indonesia Coral Trade 2024 was created.
This data has been used to create the ArcGIS layers used in the StoryMap Indonesia Coral Trade (cefas.co.uk)
with the three following layers created
Layer file showing the position of interviewed restoration sites and the results selected interview questions displayed in the ArcGIS StoryMap
Layer file showing the position of interviewed coral farmers and the results selected interview questions displayed in the ArcGIS StoryMap
Hosted/Indonesia Coral Trade interviewed coral farmers XYPoints (FeatureServer) (cefas.co.uk)
Layer file to accompany the pie chart layer to display which coral farms did not provide species information displayed in the ArcGIS StoryMap
Hosted/Indonesia Coral Trade interviewed coral farmers No Spp Info (FeatureServer) (cefas.co.uk)
Layer with pie charts describing the coral genera and the proportion each farm contributes (derived from field interviews) to restoration sites displayed in the ArcGIS StoryMap
