GIS-Based Method for Finding Optimal Ocean Energy Location: A Case Study of Terengganu State

Ocean energy is one of the most important renewable energy sources and it can highly contribute to the supply of the world's electricity demands. This paper presents a method of locating the highest potential sources of ocean energy by implementing Geographic Information System (GIS). The aim o...
