The PCCA is an interdisciplinary organization devoted to capacity building and applied research associated with computational approaches to model and monitor environmental ecosystems. Goals include establishing best practices for technical architectures, scalability, algorithmic correctness and facilitating cross-sector and cross-border data sharing and collaboration. We are partnering with a variety of industry, non governmental, academic and government organizations in Canada, the US and beyond to facilitate cross-sector and cross-border data sharing and collaboration. We invite individuals and organizations from coastal and communities and communities connected to the coast to join us in our efforts to build capacity to understand and preserve our beautiful Pacific.
