Abstract

The Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute would utilise satellite data for a spatial mapping of marine fisheries and mangrove resources in the country, its director Dr A Gopalakrishnan said here today. "Spatial mapping of marine fisheries resources will help easily locate the fishing areas, navigational channels and protected areas distinctively in the open sea waters", he said. He was addressing the valedictory of the Winter School organised by the CMFRI to train young researchers in using satellite remote sensing data. He said as part of the marine fisheries management, the CMFRI has already launched a research project to analyse the productivity of sea waters utilising the satellite data.
