We have a list of GIS data in shape files, such as point and polygon layers of Important Bird Areas and distribution of some rare and endangered species in Mongolia. You can also find links that will guide you to sources containing some very useful data sets.

Our main goal is to facilitate Mongolian biologists and researchers and educators to obtain helpful GIS and other types of data because knowledge of foreign languages is a big problem for many of them.

The list is updated and maintained mostly by volunteers from various organizations, universities, and countries. Any contribution you can make will be most welcome and will be greatly appreciated.

We have available a collection of lecture notes and powerpoint presentations made possible by active participation of lecturers and teachers in universities and middle schools from all over Mongolia.

These presentations include topics from a single species, or simple part of a ecosystem, to the complex nature of earth processes. From our site you can download many exciting and informative, and ready to use curricula as Powerpoint, MS Word, or image files.

Originally made for use by school teachers in class room we now plan to create more curricula for outdoor class activities.

We are building a digital image library for plants, animals, and landscapes in Mongolia. We seek any contributions from researchers and volunteers of high quality photos to enhance this library. The use of photos in this site is free for educational use.
