| Abstract | ||
| Considering the importance of honey bees in the production of honey and other valuable products in the country, as well as the adaptation of Iranian honey bees to the different climates of Iran, conserving the population of this species is one of the managerial goals and main pillars of research in the field of animal husbandry. The requirement to protect Iranian honey bee populations as genetic resources is to have a comprehensive and Geo-database, so that through it the information of the populations can be registered and managed and also use them when necessary. In this regard, one of the most appropriate methods is the use of a geographic information system (GIS). The purpose of the current project was to implement a Web-GIS system with the aim of registering, monitoring and managing the genetic resources of Iranian honey bees. By using the various capabilities of this system such as data registration, spatial querying and calculating the distribution area and distances between genetic resources, the information of the honey bee genetic resources can be monitored and managed in specific geographical locations throughout the country. In addition, this system can be used as a location-based database for honey bee genetic resources. | ||
