4th May 2022 – The South African Environmental Observation Network SARVA (South African Risk and Vulnerability Atlas) team in conjunction with the Sol Plaatje University Risk and Vulnerability Science Centre (RVSC) hosted a half-day workshop on GIS and Risk Analysis.
The South African Risk and Vulnerability Atlas team hosted a GIS day on 17 November 2021. GIS day is an international event that celebrates Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. The day aimed to educate and demonstrate real-world GIS applications that are making a difference in our society.
In this workshop session, we will present SARVA 3.0 Beta Portal and demonstrate a number of our new tools including:
1. Climate Risk Atlas: a decision support tool that combines spatial information on historical climate data, projections, impacts, and response actions.
2. Air Quality Dashboard: interactive visualizations of estimated daily PM2.5 values across South Africa. This method uses weather data and remote sensing data to predict historical air quality.
3. SDG Goal 3 (Health) Dashboard: a tool that links open data resources to targets and indicators of human health and well-being in South Africa at the local and district municipality scale.
4. Updated Data collections to further support global change research
