We are currently in the process of acquiring a dataset for a project prototype at the esteemed University of Waikato. The dataset we require pertains to Bioclimatic Zones and can be found at this link: Bioclimatic Zones Dataset. It's worth noting that the current dataset is confined to the Waikato region, whereas our project necessitates comprehensive coverage of the entire New Zealand. Our project entails the development of a Visual Web Application, which will seamlessly integrate this dataset with historical carbon emission data spanning several years. At its current stage, our endeavor stands as a prototype. The forthcoming application, christened "EcoTrendNZ," aims to holistically represent and analyze ecological trends and their intersections with carbon emissions.
Unlocking access to this broader dataset would address a critical limitation in our current project. Specifically, the dataset available for Bioclimatic Zones is currently confined to the Waikato region, allowing us to highlight data only for the following zones:
Coastal Zone
Lowland Zone
Submontane Zone
Montane Zone
Subalpine Zone
Alpine Zone
However, our project's ambitions extend beyond this regional scope. By obtaining a more comprehensive dataset encompassing the entire New Zealand, we can significantly enhance the accuracy and scope of our project.
Expanding our dataset would enable us to create a more holistic representation of ecological patterns and trends throughout the entire country. This, in turn, would allow us to offer a more complete and accurate analysis of the relationship between bioclimatic zones and carbon emissions, transcending the geographical boundaries of the Waikato region. The resulting insights would not only contribute to a more robust prototype of our EcoTrendNZ application but also provide valuable information for broader ecological research and policymaking in New Zealand.
EcoTrendNZ is a comprehensive analytics tool designed to visualize and analyse different bio-climatic zones across New Zealand. The project aims to provide valuable insights into various sectors, including environmental conservation, urban planning,agriculture, and climate change mitigation. By integrating bio-climatic zone data with carbon emission levels, EcoTrendNZ offers a holistic perspective on environmental patterns,empowering data-driven decision-making and sustainable practices. Consequently, the tool
will be instrumental to accomplish sustainable practices and contribute economic growth of the country.
