The data has been used to identify biodiverse and/or functionally important ecosystems which are a high priority for protection such as Marine Protected Areas.

12°0'0"N 2.The current map IS NOT a zoning plan for development but should be used to guide EIAs. Given however that the EIA process for coastal and marine development is yet Prachuap to be institutionalised it is recommended that: Khiri Khan RED ZONES: off limits to development until EIA process is official Maw Taung ¬^ Yellow Zones: development only following EIA and international best practice environmental management plans in place Mangrove Protected Sites: no development or forest clearing

3.Scientific research into the biodiversity value of the terrestrial island ecosystems is yet to be undertaken (except for Lampi MNP), as such all island ecosystems should be treated with caution in terms of Had development until surveys have been conducted to make clear their value.
