This model is designed to aid the decision making process of fisheries management. It is a Flash application that allows you to outline different fishing activities and see what the likely impact is on the underlying habitats.
A MapInfo file of the marine habitats can be loaded. Then different fishing activities can be proposed by drawing them over the top of this habitat map or again loading them in from MapInfo.
The app then produces a heat map of the likely impact these fishing activities will have on the underlying habitats.
It also has some basic GIS functionality, adding boundaries, querying positions and polygons etc.
