GIS Technology in Maritime: A MET Innovation at MAAP

This paper introduces Maritime Academy of Asia and the Pacific (MAAP), its curriculum and research and extension initiatives including but not limited to one of MAAP latest best practices in introducing geographic information system (GIS) to its community (internal and external) who share similar passion for MET innovation. The various GIS–based accomplishments led and shared by MAAP as part of its Research and Extension Services (RES) initiatives are presented namely: several GIS-based papers presented and published both local and international; GIS-based project proposals for campus management enhancement prepared for MAAP, Bataan Peninsula State University (BPSU), Lyceum University of the Philippines (LPU) and Catanduanes State University (CSU); capability Training on GIS for MAAP community and other interested institutions; and Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and Department of Science and Technology (DOST)- endorsed National 3-day GIS Conference are also discussed. There are 78 proposed GIS-based research project workshop outputs currently being implemented by 20 higher educational institutions (HEIs) in the Philippines, 17 of which are applicable to any maritime education and training institutions (METIs). MAAP has six on–going GIS- based special academic research and development projects which this paper intends to share to co-AMFUF members.
