This presentation discusses data sharing principles in Madagascar. It provides context on Madagascar, including its biodiversity, and commitment to the GEOSS Data Sharing Principles. It then describes features and implementation of GEOSS data sharing in Madagascar, including environmental data portals, satellite monitoring of oceans, biodiversity, and disasters. Data sharing helps address issues like deforestation, climate change, and supports biodiversity conservation in Madagascar.

3. I. ABOUT MADAGASCAR

4. Area: 590.000 square kilometers
Population (2011) : 20 696 070. 5 times
in comparaison of 1950.
Localisation : The big island is located
between 43° and 51° longitude -East,
and 12° and 26° latitude - South.
Langage: Malagasy
Paradis of naturalistes: exceptional
variety : biodiversity, tropical forest ,
mangroves, tsingy and so on…
Diversities of cultures such as:
mangoes, litchis, vanilla, apple, pear,
bananas, pine apple, peach, advocats…)

5. MADAGASCAR
ENDEMISM AND THREATS TO BIODIVERSITY
Geographically and biologically isolated for millions
of years, Madagascar is home to a vastarray of plants
and animals found nowhere else in the world,
including an estimated 101 endemic mammals, 202
endemic amphibians, 130 endemic birds, 370 endemic
reptiles.
If we refer of the result of searcher realized by WWF
in Madagascar, 615 new animal and vegetal species is
found and recensed in 10 years ago such as: 42
invertebrated, 17 fishes, 69 amphibians, 61 reptiles and
41 mammals,

10. Species endemic plants
Trees and bushes: 95,5% endemic
Ptéridophyte: 50% endemic
Palm: 100% endemic
Orchids: 95%
During 2008-2010, the number of the vascular
endemic plants submitted in UICN is: 1676

SINCE 17 NOV 2009

Sharing Working Group since 2012

19. III. COMMITMENT OF
GEOSS DATA SHARING

20. ENVIRONMENTAL DATA SHARING
http://madagascarportal.org/lizmap

21. In the Madagascar Portal:
The data from the forestry administration informing the
exploitation authorization issued per Region (Forest)
The data showing the quantity of woods exploited per Region The
data showing cultivated area in comparaison of the extent of the
Region (Min Agriculture),
The data showing annual trend of the quantity of exploited woods
(Forest)
Categorization of the mining exploitation
The data showing the trend on active fire detected per Region
Climate zone distribution of Madagascar (Meteorogical)
Data showing trend on burned area
Data showing reforested area over the Region
Spatial localisation at the zones adopting improved cultivation
technique
Data showing the extent of the protected area over Madagascar
Delimitation of the zones managed by the Community

24. 3. Monitoring OF FISHING
2011:The GEO AMESD-IOC -: set 2 satelite antenna with 3 x
2 computors in the Ministry of fisheries in the center and
in the High Marine Institut in the South West of
Madagascar (Toliara).

25. PROJECT SEAS-OI
The project SEAS-OI – (Surveillance
Environnementale Appliquée à la Satelite) monitor
the quality of the sea and the potential zone of
fishing.
The Satelite Station is based in Reunion- France

29. ROLE OF THIS ANTENNA
Monitoring of the temperature of the sea surface
Monitoring of the level of the sea
Monitoring of the Fishery boat in the Indian Ocean
Monitoring of the concentration of the chlorophylle,
the highspeed of the wind
Identify the potential fishery zone
