Process Step This dataset was downloaded from the Myanmar Marine Biodiversity Atlas Online http://marine.myanmarbiodiversity.org/
Lineage The original data is from Ocean Data Viewer developed by UN Environment World Conservation Monitoring Centre.The dataset was downloaded through the Myanmar Marine Biodiversity Atlas Online http://marine.myanmarbiodiversity.org/ The maps presented there detail Myanmar's physical marine environment, oceanography, marine habitats, biodiversity, and fisheries, in addition to important human influences that will play a role in shaping the country's marine environment. As the Marine Biodiversity Atlas is continuously developed, the various data layers will be made available to government departments and stakeholders through this online portal forming a living database.
