The Southeast Pacific data and Information Network in support to Integrated Coastal Area Management (SPINCAM) Project aims to establish an ICAM indicator framework in each country of the
Southeast Pacific region (Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama and Peru),
focused on environmental and socio-economic conditions within the
context of sustainable development and integrated coastal area
management. SPINCAM is funded through the Flanders-UNESCO Trust Fund for Science (FUST).
IODE, through the National Oceanographic Data Centres (NODCs) in the participating countries as well as ODINCARSA are partners in this new project by building information systems at national and regional level that support
the development of indicators, their spatial representation, and the
dissemination of ICAM resources and experiences (including the
communication format(s) and strategy).
The start-up meeting of the SPINCAM project was held in Guayaquil, Ecuador on 10-11 June 2008.
It was attended by the National Focal Points as well as some Technical Focal Points, the CPPS Secretariat, IOC/ICAM and IOC/IODE. In terms of data and information management the project will utilize the development and training process that was used also for the African Marine Atlas and Caribbean Marine Atlas.
