This collection provides geospatial boundaries for protected and conserved areas worldwide, sourced from the official WDPCA (World Database on Protected and Conserved Areas). It covers both terrestrial and marine zones, integrating data from the WDPA and WD-OECM frameworks in formats like GeoJSON and GeoPackage. The data supports the specific task of monitoring national and global progress toward biodiversity targets, such as the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework's Target 3. It enables environmental risk assessment by allowing users to intersect project boundaries with conservation zones, and serves as a foundational layer for international reporting on Sustainable Development Goals.
