Opting for open source does not mean that the technologies are inferior. The level of functionalities that exist on ESRI technologies can also be implemented on the open source, examples of which are OpenLayers [5] in combination with GeoServer [7] or MapServer [6]. In the current study, we have made use of open source library SharpMap for application development. An overview of the cost benefits for small scale industries and the ease with which application could be developed using SharpMap was put forward by Shengmao et. al. [2] for developing an application for fisheries.
