Abstract

An evaluation system of marine ecosystem services was developed by using Visual Basic 6.0 language based on ArcGIS engine platform. This system has the following functions: calculating ecosystem services in both mass and monetary unit, drawing and query easily the spatial map of ecosystem services, data management and processing. The most useful function of the system is that the laypeople of GIS may draw easily spatial map of ecosystem services. This software may provide powerful and convenient services for scientists, government officers, teachers and public.
