Purpose of workshop<\/h3>\n

There is potential for using geomatic technologies in marine mammal research that is, for the most part, untapped and unrealized.\u00a0 For a realistic assessment of the populations and trends necessary for marine mammal conservation, we need to study the relationships between marine mammal behavior and large-scale abiotic\/biotic oceanographic parameters.<\/p>\n

This workshop was created as a first step to gather together marine mammal scientists interested in the possibilities of using geographic information systems (GIS), remotely sensed imagery, and global positioning systems (GPS).\u00a0 The first workshop at the SMM conference in Maui in 1999 was such a success that we decided to hold another workshop for the 2001 SMM conference here in Vancouver.<\/p>\n
