Pacific Geospatial Women Network
summary
PGWN runs a year-one pilot that trains early-career Pacific women with two goals: practical geospatial skills and hands-on community leadership. Field teams work with women’s groups in Vua (west) and Daku (central) on Viti Levu, supply tablets, and collect offline surveys and photos using Kobo Toolbox and QField. Deliverables include maps of planting zones, mangrove sites, crab farms, waste disposal and saltwater intrusion extent, plus land-cover layers from Digital Earth Pacific used by ministries for local resilience planning.
