Directory of Coastal Web Atlases Worldwide

UNDER HEAVY CONSTRUCTION

Inventory or directory of atlases, regardless of whether they are in ICAN or not. NOAA CSC is working on inventory of U.S. efforts and EuroOcean could also help with an inventory of European atlases. These inventories get to our firm definition of what we consider a CWA to be, with our ICAN list of standard features and services. Atlas developers and users can then self-identify according to the features and functions that they offer in their atlases.
