Design of Visual Platform for Fisheries and Aquaculture Production Based on Geographic Information System Technologies

With the deterioration of ecological environment and the increasing demand for aquatic products, the development of fishing remains seriously threatened from various aspects, especially for production planning and control in particular place and time. Therefore, this technical paper develops a visual platform based on Geographic Information System (GIS) aim to help managers formulate sensible policy with the intention of achieving sustainable fisheries development. The key design of this system lies in the association of attribute database and GIS technologies referring to the Leftlet map. There are mainly two contributions in this article: (i) the visualizations of aquaculture production quantity are first proposed according to the geographical location and species category; (ii) system provides the superior results of statistical analysis on user interface due to the technical processing on data association and light or color intensities presentations. Furthermore, the web service is constructed and extended on the principles of the Browser/Server (B/S) architecture whose purpose is to reach efficiency of exploitation and operations.
