2015 
Cilacap still be one of the centers of fisheries in Indonesia at this time. One of its main commodities are shrimp. Shrimp fishing activities in Cilacap waters is conducted using trammel net (three layered nets). This study aims to draw up a map of the location of Penaeidae spp shrimp fishing areas in Cilacap waters area using a trammel net. Type of shrimp as a target is catching  banana prawn, endeavour prawn, tiger prawn, and tiger cat shrimp. Method of preparation of a map the location of shrimp fishing areas is to use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial analysis technique is a technique used in studies analysing spatial. Preparation of shrimp fishing area location  map using ArcGIS Geographic Information System Software. Shrimp fishing area mapping  is useful to know the position or where shrimp is the target of fishing operations. By knowing the shrimp fishing areas, then the fishermen will easily find the point where shrimp congregate. This will cause the shrimp fishing operations become more effective and efficient because shrimp fishing vessels can go directly to shrimp fishing area. Some of the efficiencies that can be obtained by fishermen is the cost of fuel efficiency, the efficiency of material consumption must be issued at any time the arrest operation and efficiency of the operation time of arrest.
