WMS
Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) WMS
Data from the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) of the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) at the University of Hawaii. PacIOOS is one of eleven regional observing programs in the U.S. supporting the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS). The PacIOOS region includes the U.S. Pacific Region (Hawaii, Guam, American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands), the Pacific nations in Free Association with the U.S. (Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of Palau), and the U.S. Minor Outlying Islands (Howland, Baker, Johnston, Jarvis, Kingman, Palmyra, Midway, Wake). These data are served using GeoServer in a variety of interoperable data services and output formats: http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/. See http://geoserver.org for further documentation; and GeoServer's WFS documentation at: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/. Please note that cached versions of many of these map layers exist in our GeoServer via GeoWebCache using WMS-C. This would be the preferred method of accessing some of the larger data layers for improved access speeds: http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/gwc/service/wms?request=GetCapabilities&version=1.1.1&tiled=true. Use of WMS-C is similar to traditional WMS but with the addition of the "tiled=true" parameter, which triggers GeoServer to pull map tiles from GeoWebCache if they have been previously generated. Lastly, GeoExplorer can be used to view these layers online at http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoexplorer/.

hi_pacioos_all_shark_galapagos
Species Distribution: Galapagos Shark - Hawaii
This dataset contains a collection of known point locations of Galapagos sharks identified via automated satellite tracking of tagged organisms. This can be useful for assessing species abundance, population structure, habitat use, and behavior. This collection is aggregated from multiple tagged organisms and survey periods. Each data point contains attributes for further information about the time and source of the observation. This dataset was compiled by the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) and may be updated in the future if additional data sources are acquired.
University of Hawaii's Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) desploys satellite tags on Galapagos sharks to track their movements within the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument (Northwestern Hawaiian Islands). Top predators play an important role in ecosystems by influencing prey behavior and shaping communities through trophic cascades.
NOTE: This GIS layer is restricted to map images only. For all inquiries related to data access, please contact the principal investigators (PIs) directly.

This dataset was compiled by the Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) and may be updated in the future if additional data sources are acquired.
University of Hawaii's Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) desploys satellite tags on tiger sharks to track their movements within the Main Hawaiian Islands as well as the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument (Northwestern Hawaiian Islands).
