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.
Public engagement with science, and the ways that postgraduate students can integrate public engagement into their research, was the focus of a two-day masterclass presented to members of the SAEON Graduate Student Network (GSN) on 18 – 19 March 2021.
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
