Description Geographic Information System (GIS) is used to develop the Oceanographic Information System (OIS) for marine environmental data off Karnataka coast. Its goal is to provide a set of tools for oceanographic and bathymetry data assessment and products like graphs, query system for the users. The most significant interfaces are the GIS based Map-query and Contour visualization. The interfaces are user-friendly and oriented towards bridging the gap between user's knowledge and the technical knowledge required to operate the software system. The OIS also provides users with other analysis tools like query based reports and graphs. OIS can be used as a powerful tool to synthesize not only all the data off Karnataka coast but for comprehensive interpretation and forecasting of marine environmental ecosystems for any region. This system has been applied to the Karnataka Coastal Environment, India and it is very useful for the clients and policy makers
