This article presents a bibliometric analysis of research conducted on the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in aquatic resource management. Using bibliometric methods, this study investigates the annual publication frequency, most relevant publication sources, most cited authors, and key research topics and trends in this field. The results show that there has been an increase in the number of publications over time, with an emphasis on topics such as water quality, the use of GIS itself, and geographic information systems. The most frequently cited authors included authors with a variety of disciplinary backgrounds, demonstrating the multidisciplinary nature of this research. The analysis also showed that there are still untapped research opportunities, especially in integrating GIS with new technologies, water management in urban areas, and research focused on developing countries. These findings provide a better understanding of the current research landscape and may assist in formulating future research directions for the use of GIS in aquatic resource management.
