Abstract
ERMA is an online mapping tool that integrates both static and real-time data, such as Environmental
Sensitivity Index maps, ship locations, weather, and ocean currents, in a centralized format for
environmental responders and decision makers. This allows for high-impact and fine-resolution
visualization of data for solving complex environmental response and resource issues. As part of the
overall ERMA project, baseline datasets have been collected from government sources, private
corporations, universities, local entities, and non-governmental organizations.
