Aim of Coastal Mapping System

Why mapping tool at O& C?

Definition of Words

Mapping of CPP, the CPZ boundaries

Auditing of structures on the CPP

What is on the Coastal Web Viewer System?

Benefits of the Web Viewer

Why use of GIS at Oceans & Coasts?

Destruction of beach landscape

Destruction of natural coastal habitat

Wastewater discharges

Offshore waste disposal

Unplanned (random and scattered) development

Conflicting land uses & informal coastal access

Lack of awareness of the public about the importance of our

coastal biodiversity.

As economy on coastal zones increases there are

increased pressures on natural resources which makes very

difficult to foresee the environmental dynamics without

proper scientific and high level technological tools (GIS).

Solving the issues above

O&C is solving management conflicts through optimal

solutions by integrating recent tools such as Geographic

Information Systems (GIS), Image Processing

Systems(IPS), Remote Sensing (RS), with Data

Management, Data Analysis and Modelling & this looks to

be a promising exercise

Definition of Words o Coastal Protection Zone:-

• 100 meters above High Water Mark in Urban Areas

• 1 kilometers above High Water Mark in Rural Areas

o Coastal Public Property:-

• Territorial sea is 12 Nautical Miles from

• 200 nautical miles below High Water Mark

Aim of Coastal Mapping System

Clear identification and Determination of CPZ & CPP boundaries as stipulated on ICM Act (Act 24 of 2008)

Mapping of all physical structures on both CPZ & CPP

Determination of Environmental Assets & Coastal Systems

Baseline report on state own land & structures within CPP for Auditing purposes.

Baseline report for future coastal land uses & development

System development with reporting functionality

Mapping of CPZ &CPP

o Mapping boundaries of CPZ & CPP

o Mapping physical structures within CPZ & CPP

Mapping Project (Auditing of Structure's within

CPZ & CPP)

Auditing illegal structures on CPZ

To report about all physical features on the CPZ & CPP

Coastal Web Viewer

Enables you to Bookmark

Enables you to View coastal features that are in CPZ &

CPP

Identify tool

Co-ordinate plotting

Spatial Navigation (searching tool)

Drawing and Measuring

Reporting functionality about features in CPZ & CPP

http://41.76.211.163/flexviewers/deaviewer/

Benefits of Mapping tool Open use by all officials under constraints of GIS

software's

Keep status quo of coastal management

Serve as tool for proper coastal planning and management of illegal structures

Reporting functionality about physical features in CPZ as well as CPP

Answers many GIS questions as WHAT?, WHERE? & HOW?
