On 8 March, the Harbour Department of the Thai Ministry of Transport issued a letter inviting consultants to submit proposals on how they intend to survey and map out saltwater intrusions along the Thai coast. Once chosen, consultants are hired to establish a GIS database such that coastal areas can be better managed. This database will include aerial photography.
