Ojha, Central Institute of Fisheries Education Deemed University {!CAR} Fisheries University Road, Andheri {W), Mumbai 400 061, India 1corresponding author: e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In recent times, GIS is being increasingly used as a decision support system for management of fisheries and aquaculture. It provides new innovative approaches of the dynamic relations that characterize this sector. In this context, a study is conducted based on the secondary data of a major maritime state, Maharashtra, where mapping of fisheries profile of coastal districts in the state is performed through GIS tool having critical geographic dimensions. This paper aims to map information of the state which can be used for the purpose of planning and decision making as each aspect of map has a different component involved. For this purpose, at the core of the system, the data were accessed and integrated from different sources mainly from the five coastal districts of Maharashtra state. Data were brought in tabular form through Microsoft Excel and then joined to Map info Professional version 8.0 GIS software was used with the digitized map of Maharashtra state to enable mapping. This was further synchronized and integrated to generate four thematic maps searchable on several criteria. Map 1 contains the searchable criteria as regards to the fish growth for the year 1997-2004 and fish seed production for the year 2003-04. Map 2 contains fisher population along with their occupation for the year 1992. Map 3 contains brackish water and shrimp farming production and culture area. Map 4 contains infrastructural facilities which include type of boats etc. With this mapping, planners and various stakeholders have accessible information as regards to the various components of fisheries in the state of Maharashtra.

  • District Disaster Management Authority Sindhudurg
    DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN SINDHUDURG UPDATED June 2020 DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY SINDHUDURG Disaster Management Programme Govt.Of Maharashtra Executive Summary The District Disaster Management Plan is a key part of an emergency management. It will play a significant role to address the unexpected disasters that occur in the district effectively .The information available in DDMP is valuable in terms of its use during disaster. Based on the history of various disasters that occur in the district ,the plan has been so designed as an action plan rather than a resource book .Utmost attention has been paid to make it handy, precise rather than bulky one. This plan has been prepared which is based on the guidelines provided by the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM)While preparing this plan ,most of the issues ,relevant to crisis management ,have been carefully dealt with. During the time of disaster there will be a delay before outside help arrives. At first, self help is essential and depends on a prepared community which is alert and informed .Efforts have been made to collect and develop this plan to make it more applicable and effective to handle any type of disaster. The DDMP developed involves some significant issues like Incident Command System (ICS), India Disaster Resource Network (IDRN)website, the service of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) in disaster management .In fact ,the response mechanism ,an important part of the plan is designed with the ICS, a best model of crisis management has been included in the response part for the first time. It has been the most significant tool to the response manager to deal with the crisis within the limited period and to make optimum use of the available resources.
