Abstract: The fisherman’s crossing the borders and identification of locations in the sea is becoming a difficult task with existing equipment’s provide to the fisherman’s as a result they cross the borders. In our day-to-day life we hear about many Tamil Fishermen being caught and put under Sri Lankan Naval custody. The sea border between the countries is not easily identifiable, which is the main reason for this offence. Moreover, in cases of imminent natural disasters, failure or delay in notifying concerned personnel to evacuate results in loss of life on a large scale. In this paper we have proposed a method which protects the fishermen by logging their entries and exits in the har bour using embedded system, notifying the country’s sea border to them by using Global Positioning System (GPS), Geo Fencing and Mobile Systems. We use GPS as a method to track the current location of the fishermen. The GPS’ current latitude and longitude coordinates are sent to the database where the administrator utilizes it for continuous tracking and monitoring of the user, if in distress using their credentials and last known location, current location predictions can be made. Another benefit being the logging procedures help official authoritative agencies to identify fishermen and their activities for their own safety and security.
