  • Fisheries Management in Bang Saphan Bay, Thailand
    Systematizing Local Knowledge using GIS: Fisheries Management in Bang Saphan Bay, Thailand by Supaporn Anuchiracheeva, Harvey Demaine, GaneshP. Shivakoti and Kenneth Ruddle Abstract Although local knowledge is a crucial source of information for fishery development, its generally unsystematic presentation and nebulous content makes use by policy makers or managers difficult. Based on field data obtained using Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) at Bang Saphan Bay, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, Thailand, we attempt to show here how local knowledge can be effectively systematized, analyzed and displayed visually using a Geographical Information System (GIS) for use in fisheries management. PRA data on location fished, time of fishing, techniques and technology used and species targeted was obtained from local fishers then mapped using Arcview (3.1).| In this way local fisheries knowledge can be converted into geo-spatial data form via GIS, and the succinct results used easily to guide fishery management and planning, especially by offering directions for rights-based fisheries and co-management. 1. INTRODUCTION Local or traditional knowledge is now recognized as a crucial source of information in rural and agricultural development [1, 2] including fishery development activities. Charles [3] states that "... it seems clear that one of the significant contributors to fishery collapse is the combination of (a) a lack of knowledge in some cases, and (b) a failure to use all available sources of information and knowledge in other cases". He also observes that there is increasing recognition that fishers have a base of useful knowledge, which is continually updated through their direct experience at sea, and that their support for fisheries management is enhanced if fishers are involved in discussion with their information available.
