MiCO collects animal tracking data from around the world, analyzes them and produces data products on area use in the form of nodes (e.g. feeding, breeding, etc.) and corridors.
This section lists all migratory species MiCO is working on and overviews of their migrations and other activities.
Click here or the title to start exploring.
Nodes and corridors MiCO produced are associated with national waters (EEZs) of countries.
This section lists countries with EEZs and overviews on how migratory species use these areas.

The development of the MiCO system and products are only possible with the participation of many researchers all over the world.
This section lists all contributors and overviews of their contributions.

Map image will be exported within the extent you choose. There are three options to define an extent.
Features will be exported based on your choice. A file geodatabase will be generated per feature type. Multiple geodatabases are zipped.
MiCO's overall goal is to aggregate and generate actionable knowledge to support worldwide policy planning and conservation efforts for numerous migratory species and the oceans on which they depend. One objective is to provide this knowledge to the public through an online, freely accessible system with 1) tools to visualize how marine migratory species use and connect areas within the oceans, and 2) information on the scientific evidence used to support this knowledge. MiCO system users can access data using customized filters, view information and create maps within specific areas of interest, and download the data and metadata for additional analyses.
To continue using the MiCO System, please refer to the Terms of Use below and agree on it.
