Aquatic habitat mapping plays a vital role in sustainable management practices for both wild fisheries and aquaculture operations. Using technologies like GIS (Geographic Information Systems), sonar, and remote sensing, researchers can create detailed maps of underwater environments, identifying key habitats for fish, shellfish, and other aquatic organisms. These maps help assess habitat quality, monitor biodiversity, and ensure the protection of ecologically sensitive areas. In aquaculture, habitat mapping helps locate optimal farming sites, minimizing ecological impacts and improving production efficiency. By mapping aquatic habitats, both conservationists and industry stakeholders can make informed decisions, ensuring the preservation of vital ecosystems and promoting sustainable practices in aquatic resource management.
