Abstract
Electronic instruments play a vital role in collection of data for
investigations in riverine and reservoir fisheries . The data collected will help
to make realistic estimation of the resources and better understanding of related
problems . The paper discusses the measurements made with electronic
instruments developed by the Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, viz .,
water current meter, depth meter, speed log . sedimentation monitor, turbidity
meter and imported instruments such as echo sounder and global positioning
system in rivers and reservoirs . Such data can be incorporated in geographical
information system for better planning, management and harvesting of
resources .
