Fugro has been awarded a contract by The Pacific Community (SPC) to acquire and process high‑resolution coastal data across exposed outer islands in Tonga and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The initiative is supported by funding from the Green Climate Fund, together with the Governments of Australia and New Zealand.
As climate change continues to reshape marine and coastal environments across the Pacific, Fugro is bringing its expertise in ocean science, environmental monitoring and marine infrastructure to support a more sustainable and equitable future for the region. Fugro’s RAMMS® airborne LiDAR and imaging system and analysis technologies act as the enabling tools, but the primary outcome is improved national decision-making capability and strengthened local ownership of climate risk information.
To support governments and regional agencies in making risk-informed choices, Fugro will deliver high-resolution coastal intelligence across exposed islands in Tonga and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Fugro will provide authoritative baseline information on coastal exposure, inundation pathways and future hazard scenarios, enabling earlier warning systems, targeted adaptation planning and more resilient community development.
In addition to data delivery, Fugro will work with SPC to co‑implement a targeted capacity‑building programme, equipping local technical teams with the skills needed to interpret, maintain
