摘要

GIS is becoming an increasingly useful tool in carrying out environmental management. In conjunction with remote sensing, GIS helps in (i) bringing forth the hidden patterns in a dataset (ii) perform queries (iii) store, edit and retrieve data in the form of maps, tables or graphs and (iv) prepare exceedingly 'expressive' maps to facilitate survey, spatial modeling, analysis and decision-making. This paper aims to take stock of the GIS capabilities which are particularly relevant to wetland management.
