CHƯƠNG MƯỜI TÁM Áp dụng công nghệ không gian địa lý môi trường cửa sông Thế giới các giá trị và dễ bị tổn thương của các cửa sông từ lâu đã được công nhận. Học cửa sông quốc gia năm 1969 ở Mỹ là một trong những ví dụ ( ). Tại Anh, các sáng kiến của tiếng Anh Thiên nhiên (EN) và Di sản thiên nhiên Scotland (SNH) để phát triển cách tiếp cận mới để quản lý cửa sông ở Anh và xứ Wales và Scotland tương ứng, dẫn đến kế hoạch quản lý cửa sông (tiếng Anh. | CHAPTER EIGHTEEN Applying the Geospatial Technologies to Estuary Environments David R. Green and Stephen D. King INTRODUCTION Around the World the value and vulnerability of estuaries has long been recognised. The National Estuary Study of 1969 in the . is just one such example http www. inforain. org mapsatwork oregonestuary Oregonestuary_page . In the UK initiatives by English Nature EN and Scottish Natural Heritage SNH to develop new approaches to estuary management in England and Wales and Scotland respectively led to Estuary Management Plans English Nature 1993 . In Australia there have also been many similar initiatives to develop sustainable management of estuarine environments increasingly coming under pressure from tourism and industry NLWRA 2002 and more recently in the UK from the impact of offshore windfarms . Robin Rigg in the Solway Firth Anonymous 2003 . Green 1994 1995 proposed the idea of GIS-based estuary information systems in the UK as a means by which it would be possible to collect store analyse and display spatial data and information to aid in estuary management. At the time GIS was just beginning to develop into a practical tool for environmental applications in coastal zone management. In the intervening years a great deal of interest has been shown in the development of GIS and the related geospatial technologies to aid in environmental monitoring mapping modelling and management. Rapid developments in information technology IT including the Internet and the related technologies have also led to the more widespread use of geospatial data and information for environmental applications by coastal managers and practitioners. Such developments have been responsible for providing the basis for access to data and information for management and public participation exercises. Increasingly decision support systems DSS and information systems are also being used to support data and information requirements for coastal management.
