About Pacific Data Hub

Pacific Data Hub is the open-data portal for Pacific (regional). It runs on CKAN, an open catalogue standard used by many national governments. You can browse it directly at pacificdata.org/data. Reuse terms are set out in the portal's terms of service (SPC governs the hub; licences are carried per dataset and vary enormously. The hub is a harvester — it restates the licence of the source portal (SPC GeoNode, data.gouv.nc, SPREP), so resolution must be per dataset, never per portal.).

80% of datasets here declare no licence

On Pacific Data Hub, a majority of datasets here declare no licence at all. It's important to know that "no licence declared" is not the same as public-domain or free-to-use. Undeclared data carries no explicit permission to copy, adapt, or redistribute it — so reusers should treat it cautiously and check with the publisher before relying on it. Vizzie flags each dataset's licence (or its absence) so you can see this before you build.
