The application of coastal management and Geographical Information System (GIS) initiatives in Selangor from government agencies perspectives

It is well recognised that coastlines are undergoing rapid development and firm management policies have to be made. Nevertheless, for any shore management to be efficacious, the policies need to be founded on informed decision-making. Geographical Information System (GIS) encourages the development...
