Such a typological approach, the analysis of classification based on types, is one prerequisite for management issues related to coastal seafloor. It provides a frame work for improved application of large environmental data sets, allows enhanced visualization of multiple information layers, and supports modeling of temporal and spatial interrelations of coastal and ocean regions. To tackle the problem of presentation of large data sets MarGIS uses a web-based viewer which allows a clear visualisation of the information for the general public. The viewer allows a dynamic actualisation and access of metadata and additional information.Text/Conference Paper
