The Shoreline Public Access Project is a geographic information systems (GIS) project to identify the location, length, and degree of public access to Washington State's marine shoreline. Before the project, it was unknown how much of Washington's 3066 miles of shoreline was public. The information was scattered throughout various government agencies and the data quality was variable. Through the Shoreline Public Access Project, the best available information has been summarized into a single data set, used to answer questions about our shoreline's ownership and public accessibility.For more information, contact Christina Kellum, Washington State Department of Ecology GIS Manager, gis@ecy.wa.gov.
The Water Point Data Exchange (WPDx) unlocks the potential of water point data to improve decision-making and increase rural water access. By establishing a platform for sharing water point data throughout the global water sector, WPDx adds value to the data already being collected. By bringing together diverse data sets, the water sector can establish an unprecedented understanding of water services. Sharing this data has the potential to improve water access for millions of people as a result of better information available to governments, service providers, researchers, NGOs, and others.
