ABSTRACT
Catanduanes has a vast home grown mangrove species. Waterfront and mangrove in Catanduanes Island in Luzon, Philippines (Lat 13.67 °, Long 124.12 °) is conceivable along the eastern, western and southern coasts. There are several shorelines and ocean shores that possess marine greenery (marine full scale green growth) and fauna. This paper displays a geographic data framework (GIS) - based multi-criteria basic guidance approach for mangrove species. This assesses the relative needs of mapping and identifying the different kinds of mangrove in light of an arrangement of inclinations, criteria and markers for the province. It determines whether the government should enhance their effort to improve the ecological habitat in mangrove reforestation that shall have a great impact on the province with regards to environment, climate change on the marine nature in a natural way of life. This Creation of geographic information system in the province will help the environment to preserve the habitat for different kinds of marine life and develop mangrove protected areas.
