CARIS (Computer Aided Resource Information System)

CARIS (Computer Aided Resource Information System) is a software platform designed to manage and analyze spatial data, often used in fields like marine and environmental sciences. It helps organizations efficiently store, visualize, and interpret geographic information, such as underwater terrain or natural resources. By integrating various data types—including maps, images, and statistical information—CARIS enables decision-makers to plan, monitor, and manage their resources more effectively. Essentially, it combines technology and data to enhance understanding of geographical environments, improving outcomes in research, conservation, and resource management.
