Methodology:
Coastal
Land Use/Land Cover maps and Coastal Regulation Zone map on 1:25,000 and 1:50,000
scales derived from satellite data were collected from State Coastal Zone Management
Authorities and enlarged into 1:12,500 scale. The georeferenced maps were digitized
in ARC-INFO GIS. Digitized maps were edited, labeled and a layout was prepared.
The area statistics of different Ecologically Important Areas were generated and
represented in the maps.
The flow chart format is shown in the figure
