Change in the Extent of Water-related Ecosystems\n", "\n", "\n", "\n", "\n", "# Notebook Summary\n", "The United Nations have prescribed 17 \"Sustainable Development Goals\" (SDGs). This notebook attempts to monitor SDG Indicator 6.6.1 - change in the extent of water-related ecosystems. Indicator 6.6.1 has 4 sub-indicators:\n", "> i. The spatial extent of water-related ecosystems
\n", "> ii. The quantity of water contained within these ecosystems
\n", "> iii. The quality of water within these ecosystems
\n", "> iv. The health or state of these ecosystems
