GIS And Oil Spill Tracking Model in Forecasting Potential Oil Spill-affected Areas Along Terengganu and Pahang Coastal Area

Oil contamination can occur accidentally or incidentally in the environment as long as petroleum or shipping activities exist. There is a need to take appropriate preventive measures to reduce the negative impact by carefully monitoring the sprinkles and dispersion particles due to the oil spill mov...
