Overview
Building from the development of the Alaska Arctic Observatory & Knowledge Hub (AAOKH) community observations platform, the PISUNA-Net observations database was developed to record, archive, and share Indigenous and local knowledge and expertise on natural resources and resource use on the western and northern coasts of Greenland. Observations begin in May 2009 through the present.
