Fuzzy Sets in the GIS Environment in the Location of Objects on the Surface of Water Bodie

The issue presented here focuses on concerns about the localization of the object on water surface. The article shows how to facilitate localization process by applying mathematical solutions characterized by simplicity, rapid action and delivering credible results. The paper shows the results of background experiments, which enabled to collect technical parameters needed for conducting simulation testing. The research has been carried by employing network-centric maps of Zatoka Gdańska (Gdansk Bay) prepared in the ArcGIS environment. This allows to place scenarios in a real-life seacoast. Thanks to this solution, the simulation testing has remained very close to a real-life environmental condition. A particular attention has been devoted to the accuracy of observers' localization and its influence on operation effectiveness. Some new tools have been introduced, with an aim to support the usage of fuzzy sets in the GIS environment.
