I'm hoping this e-mail might be circulated to the MARMAM list-serv. My name is Adam Jadhav; I'm an environmental policy master's student working on a marine biodiversity/threats mapping project in India.
I'm reaching out because I'm in need of spatially explicit marine mammal data (CSV coordinate/species tables, shapefiles, geodatabases, other GIS formatted files) specifically for the Indian EEZ. I have the data from OBIS-Seamap (http://seamap.env.duke.edu/) and the larger IndOBIS set, but they're rather sparse on mega-vertebrate observations for India's EEZ. I'm also pursuing some good Indian government data (from a 2008 CMFRI pub by Afsal et al). I would happily take advice on other datasets related to mammals, mega-vertebrates or biodiversity in general (the more layers the merrier in this case). I can be reached directly at adam.jad...@student.american.edu.
