Mariculture
 
Description Mariculture, cultivating organisms in
the open sea using cages or tanks, is
popular given the increasing demand
for seafood. The estimated marine
production capacity in India is 4–8 million
tonnes. But current production is
negligible.
To identify the best locations, many
constraints need to be considered.
Wind, waves, currents and tides determine
suitability. Mariculture should
also not clash with traditional fishing,
maritime traffic and offshore pipelines.
It is in such situations that geographic
information-based multi-criteria tools
can be of help.
