About EMMap
Energy Marine Map, EMMap, is an interactive tool developed by MERIC, that aims to visualize from a single platform different types of information related to the implementation of a marine renewable energy project in Chile.
This platform has an element that makes it unique: has been constructed based on user experience, which has allowed us to secure its functionality with the end user. Within the users and supporters in EMMAP’s development, we would like to thank the following institutions:

Georeferenced data is visualized in the map, in which you can edit layers’ visualization according to your preferences, from the menu in the left. At the right side, you will find a collection of reports, research products and online platforms links that could be of potential interest and from which some variables were extracted. At the top of the page you can download, print or share the visualization of information built using EMMap.
Currently, EMMap is the First Version 1.0, released on October 3rd, 2019. We will be collecting comments, observations and improvement requests, in order to implement these in a Second Version 2.0, whose launch is yet to be defined. During this period, also, we will update EMMap’s information, uploading new layers, adding reports and research outputs to the library. If you want to be updated with EMMap’s news, or leave us any comment, we invite you to leave us a message in the Contact form.
