Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich BWL - Sonstiges, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The study material on the “Application of Remote Sensing and GIS in Fisheries” is a humble attempt to convey the physical understanding about the techniques like GIS and Remote sensing to the students from fisheries. Realizing the need for a material describing the application especially in fisheries sector, it was my fervid aspiration to develop a text book. The Worlds highest producer of fish and fishery products from capture fisheries are identified as major fishing areas by FAO. The countries within the Southeast Asian region considered as a major producer of capture fisheries. In 2019, the world’s fisheries production was amounted to 195.7 million metric tons (MT) of which, 94.6 million MT was from capture fisheries and 101.1 came from aquaculture. Southeast Asian region accounted for about 42.2 million MT that constitute around 22% of the total landing. Among them, Indonesia, the highest producer generated about 20.6 million MT. Considering this scenario, the effective management of the region’s inland and coastal areas is very essential to reinforce the trend of fisheries and aquaculture in geographical region and thereby can ensure food security of peoples within the whole world. There are existing technologies that would be used for better planning and management of fisheries and aquaculture, e.g. GIS and Remote Sensing technologies. The usage of those technologies is therefore worth exploring, especially in obtaining the required information for formulating appropriate approaches, policies, further as management plans for medium and long-term sustainable utilization of fishery resources and environmental facilities for fisheries and aquaculture.

Book Synopsis Geographical Information Systems by : Geoffery J. Meaden
Download or read book Geographical Information Systems written by Geoffery J. Meaden and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late 20th century has witnessed increasing crises in the world's marine fisheries. A causal analysis of these reveals that a common element are various manifestations of spatial inequity. This most frequently includes the inequity of access rights to the resource, but factors such as variations in resource depletion, spatio-temporal variations in stock recruitment, the imposition of regulatory zoning, destruction of marine ecosystems and the siting of mariculture facilities are other examples. To resolve some of these problems, management practices must be improved. As has been shown in other fields where spatially related problems occur, there is now a promising tool, Geographical Information Systems (GIS), which, combined with other analytical tools and models, could allow for improved spatial management. GIS are basically integrated computer based systems which allow for the input of digital geo-referenced data to produce maps plus other textual, graphical and tabular output. The essential usefulness of GIS however, lies in its ability to manipulate data in a large number of ways and to perform various analytical functions so as to produce output which makes for more efficient decision making.As with many computer based systems, the key to GIS success lies in the acquisition of suitable data. The various means by which both primary and secondary data can be located, gathered, accessed and stored are described.

Book Synopsis Advanced Remote Sensing for Urban and Landscape Ecology by : Sk. Mustak
Download or read book Advanced Remote Sensing for Urban and Landscape Ecology written by Sk. Mustak and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the use of various remote sensing data such as microwave, hyperspectral and very high-resolution (VHR) satellite imagery; mapping techniques including pixel and object-based machine learning; and geostatistical modelling techniques including cellular automation, entropy and land fragmentation. Remote sensing plays a vital role in solving urban and environmental challenges at the landscape level. Globally, more than half of the urban population is facing severe environmental and social challenges, especially those relating to climate change, agricultural land encroachment, green infrastructure and environmental degradation, mobility due to rapid rural–urban transformation and anthropogenic interventions. Mapping and quantification of such threats at the landscape level are challenging for experts using traditional techniques; however, remote sensing technology provides diverse spatial data at a varying scale, volume and accessibility for mapping and modelling, and it also analyses challenges at urban and landscape levels. Together, they address challenges at urban and landscape levels to support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Book excerpt: GIS AND REMOTE SENSING - BASED MODELS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF AQUACULTURE AND FISHERIES IN THE COASTAL ZONE:A case study in Ba?a de Sepetiba, BraziL.by Philip Conrad ScottThe use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in regional development is nowbecoming recognized as an important research tool in identifying potential aquaculture development and promoting better use of fishery resources on a regional basis. Modelling tools of GIS were investigated within a database specifically built for the region of Sepetiba Bay (W44?50, S23?00) Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, where, water based aquaculture development potential for two native species 0 f molluscs: P ema p ema (brownmussel) and Crassostrea rhizophorae (mangrove oyster) was identified, and additionally potential for development of land-based aquaculture of the white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Taking into consideration a mix of production functions including environmentalfactors such as water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen content, natural food availability as well as shelter from exposed conditions, several aquaculture development potential areas were found. The integration of sub-models comprised of thematic layers in the GIS includinghuman resources available, general infrastructure present, regional markets as well as constraints to aquaculture development was developed. Multi-criteria evaluation within sub-models and between sub-models resulted inidentification of several distinct potential areas for mollusc aquaculture development, indicating significant production potential and job creation. Basic field environmental data were collected in field trips in 1996, 1997 and 1998. Fresh market data were collected in 2001-2002 and were used to analyse market potentiaL. The map analyses undertaken with GIS based models support the hypothesis thatpromising locations for aquaculture development, their extent and potential production capacity can be predicted, making GIS use a useful tool for natural resource management anddecision support.

Download or read book Geographic Information Systems in Fisheries Management and Planning written by Gertjan de Graaf and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many fishery biologists and policy makers involved in inland fisheries management and planning are unaware of GIS technology and its potential for fisheries planning and management. The FAO Inland Water Resources and Aquaculture Service (FIRI) has been active for the last 19 years in promoting the use of GIS and remote sensing in fisheries and aquaculture. Promotional activities have been carried out through training, projects, field missions, and oral presentations and publications. However, a manual to use along with GIS software for the fisheries biologists in the field explaining GIS in a way that is understandable to non-GIS users had not been produced until now. This manual was written to overcome this knowledge-gap, it is a "do-it-yourself" manual giving a short introduction to GIS software and its applications in fishery science. The overall objective of this manual is to encourage fishery managers to use this tool (GIS) to foster the sustainable use of natural resources. There are five main sections in the manual: GIS concepts and functions and key tools provided by ArcView 3.x, Geographic coordinate system and map projections, Raster data and analysis, Regression analysis, and Application case studies. All sections are accompanied by exercises that have been designed to illustrate key applications of GIS in inland and marine fisheries management. Also, a custom-designed ArcView grid regression extension is included to show the integration of GIS with surplus production models.
