Abstract
GIS is widely used in marine sciences since last decade. Through the Geographical Information systems, it is possible to synthesize all data about marinas for comprehensive interpretation and forecasting of marine environmental systems. In marine sciences, the simultaneous analysis of data sets can be combined within a GIS. In this study, it has been aimed to constitute inventory of marinas on the coastal regions of Turkey by means of GIS. The graphic data which includes borders of counties on the coastal regions of Turkey have been obtained from standard topographic maps. Data design has been established for attribute data includes general information about marinas as coordinates, location, the name of marina, etc. and service opportunities given to yachtmen as forecast, rent a car, laundry, etc. Attributes data of marinas have been obtained from different sources such as internet, information forms, advertisement brochures, puplications of goverenment associations, etc. Various analysis have been carried out about marinas of Gocek Bay. In this temporal analysis it is indicated a significant parallelism between the augmentation of yacht number and total coliform values.
