of the islanders. Therefore, this indicator will be divided into two sub-indicators:
a1. Natural tourism attractiveness a2. Cultural tourism attractiveness
b. Tourist capacity
The two island communes in Quan Lan have different capacities to receive tourists. Minh Chau Commune is home to many standard hotels and resorts, attracting high-income domestic and international tourists. Meanwhile, Quan Lan Commune has many motels mainly built and operated by local people, so the scale and quality are not high, and will be suitable for ordinary tourists such as students.
c. Time of exploitation of Quan Lan Island Commune:
Quan Lan tourism is seasonal due to weather and climate conditions and festivals only take place on certain days of the year, specifically in spring. In Quan Lan commune, the period from April to June and from September to November is considered the best time to visit Quan Lan because the cultural tourism activities are mainly associated with festivals taking place during this time.
Minh Chau island commune:
Tourism exploitation time is all year round, because this is a place with a number of tourist attractions with diverse ecosystems such as Bai Tu Long National Park Research Center, Tram forest, Turtle Laying Beach, so besides coming to the beach for tourism and vacation in the summer, Minh Chau will attract research groups to come for tourism combined with research at other times of the year.
d. Sustainability
The sustainability of ecotourism sites in Quan Lan and Minh Chau communes depends on the sensitivity of the ecosystems to climate changes.
landscape. In general, these tourist destinations have a fairly high level of sustainability, because they are natural ecosystems, planned and protected. However, if a large number of tourists gather at certain times, it can exceed the carrying capacity and affect the sustainability of the environment (polluted beaches, damaged trees, animals moving away from their habitats, etc.), then the sustainability of the above ecosystems (natural ecosystems, human ecosystems) will also be affected and become less sustainable.
e. Location and accessibility
Both island communes have ports to take tourists to visit from Van Don wharf:
- Quan Lan – Van Don traffic route:
Phuc Thinh – Viet Anh high-speed boat and Quang Minh high-speed boat, depart at 8am and 2pm from Van Don to Quan Lan, and at 7am and 1pm from Quan Lan to Van Don. There are also wooden boats departing at 7am and 1pm.
- Van Don - Minh Chau traffic route:
Chung Huong high-speed train, Minh Chau train, morning 7:30 and afternoon 13:30 from Van Don to Minh Chau, morning 6:30 and afternoon 13:00 from Minh Chau to Van Don.
f. Infrastructure
Despite receiving investment attention, the issue of infrastructure and technical facilities for tourism on Quan Lan Island is still an issue that needs to be resolved because it has a direct impact on the implementation of ecotourism activities. The minimum conditions for serving tourists such as accommodation, electricity, water, communication, especially medical services, and security work need to be given top priority. Ecotourism spots in Minh Chau commune are assessed to have better infrastructure and technical facilities for tourism because there are quite complete and synchronous conditions for serving tourists, meeting many needs of domestic and foreign tourists.
3.2.1.4. Determine assessment levels and assessment scales
Corresponding to the levels of each criterion, the index is the score of those levels in the order of 4, 3, 2, 1 decreasing according to the standard of each level: very attractive (4), attractive (3), average (2), less attractive (1).
3.2.1.5. Determining the coefficients of the criteria
For the assessment of DLST in the two communes of Quan Lan and Minh Chau islands, the students added evaluation coefficients to show the importance of the criteria and indicators as follows:
Coefficient 3 with criteria: Attractiveness, Exploitation time. These are the 2 most important criteria for attracting tourists to tourism in general and eco-tourism in particular, so they have the highest coefficient.
Coefficient 2 with criteria: Capacity, Infrastructure, Location and accessibility . Because the assessment area is an island commune of Van Don district, the above criteria are selected by the author with appropriate coefficients at the average level.
Coefficient 1 with criteria: Sustainability. Quan Lan has natural and human-made ecotourism sites, with high biodiversity and little impact from local human factors. Most of the ecotourism sites are still wild, so they are highly sustainable.

Basically, both Minh Chau and Quan Lan localities have quite favorable conditions for developing ecotourism. However, Quan Lan commune has more advantages to develop ecotourism in a humanistic direction, because this is an area with many famous historical relics such as Quan Lan Communal House, Quan Lan Pagoda, Temple worshiping the hero Tran Khanh Du, ... along with local festivals held annually such as the wind praying ceremony (March 15), Quan Lan festival (June 10-19); due to its location near the port and long exploitation time, the beaches in Quan Lan commune (especially Quan Lan beach) are no longer hygienic and clean to ensure the needs of tourists coming to relax and swim; this is also an area with many beautiful landscapes such as Got Beo wind pass, Ong Phong head, Voi Voi cave, but the ability to access these places is still very limited (dirt hill road, lots of gravel and rocks), especially during rainy and windy times; In addition, other natural resources such as mangrove forests and sea worms have not been really exploited for tourism purposes and ecotourism development. On the contrary, Minh Chau commune has more advantages in developing ecotourism in the direction of natural tourism, this is an area with diverse ecosystems such as at Rua De Beach, Bai Tu Long National Park Conservation Center...; Minh Chau beach is highly appreciated for its natural beauty and cleanliness, ranked in the top ten most beautiful beaches in Vietnam; Minh Chau commune is also home to Tram forest with a large area and a purity of up to 90%, suitable for building bridges through the forest (a very effective type of natural ecotourism currently applied by many countries) for tourists to sightsee, as well as for the purpose of studying and researching.

3.2.2. Using SWOT matrix to evaluate Quan Lan island tourism
General assessment of current tourism activities of Quan Lan island is shown through the following SWOT matrix:
Table 3.5: SWOT matrix evaluating tourism activities on Quan Lan island
Internal agent
Strengths- There is a lot of potential for tourism development, especially natural ecotourism and humanistic ecotourism.- The unskilled labor force is relatively abundant.- resource environmentunpolluted, still
Weaknesses- Poorly developed infrastructure, especially traffic routes to tourist destinations on the island.- The team of professional staff is still weak.- Tourism products in general
quite wild, originalintact
general and DLST in particularalone is monotonous.
External agents
Opportunity- Tourism is a key industry in the socio-economic development strategy of the province and Van Don economic zone.- Quan Lan was selected as a pilot area for eco-tourism development within the framework of the green growth project between Quang Ninh province and the Japanese organization JICA.- The flow of tourists and especially ecotourism in the world tends toincreasing
Challenge- Weather and climate change abnormally.- Competition in tourism products is increasingly fierce, especially with other localities in the province such as Ha Long, Mong Cai...- Awareness of tourists, especially domestic tourists, about ecotourism and nature conservation is not high.
Through summary analysis using SWOT matrix we see that:
To exploit strengths and take advantage of opportunities, it is necessary to:
- Diversify products and service types (build more tourism routes aimed at specific needs of tourists: experiential tourism immersed in nature, spiritual cultural tourism...)
- Effective exploitation of resources and differentiated products (natural resources and human resources)

Figure 3.2: Water resources database (ArcGIS)
3.4. Comments on the assessment of water security level in the river basin
Based on the Da River water security data built in the database
Our country's resource data shows:
- The level of impact on water resources in densely populated cities, near industrial parks and economic zones in provinces with large hydropower projects such as Lai Chau, Dien Bien, Son La and Hoa Binh is in an alarming state, with serious impacts on the main stream of the Da River.
- In the research areas of the provinces on the main stream of the Da River, Hoa Binh province is assessed to have the weakest security level. The level of water security is shown by level (severely affected area (level 1), heavily affected area (level 2), less affected area (level 3). Based on the displayed presentation file, in Hoa Binh province, it is mainly level 1 and 2, which means that the serious impact level is in an alarming state, only a small part of the water source area is slightly affected. Thus, Hoa Binh province needs to take measures
Specific measures to use water resources economically and effectively. Provide clear directions for using water resources for hydropower and agricultural development purposes, avoiding waste. Enhance the responsibility of individuals and units and propagate to people to perform well the assigned tasks to contribute to ensuring water security for the region in particular and for the Da River mainstream in general.
- Of the three remaining provinces, Son La is the province with the safest water source, with the least impact level, so it is necessary to maintain a stable level of water source, contributing to the accumulation of water source for use in the main stream of the Da River, and release water at the right time to supply the water shortage for the tributaries on the main stream of the river. In terms of seriousness, Dien Bien and Lai Chau provinces will need to pay more attention to the issue of water source security, because there is a large economic zone here with a large concentration of trade exchanges, in the future the level of water source security will increase significantly, so this province must have policies and strategies for reasonable use of water sources right now.
- Notably, the source of incoming water in Lai Chau province is not assessed, with a fairly large area located upstream on the main stream of the Da River. With a fairly dense river system, providing abundant water from upstream, however, in these places it is impossible to assess the source of incoming water, this will be one of the issues that needs to be carefully researched and developed in future studies.
- Water security based on agricultural development criteria: with the vegetation on the main stream of the Da River quite rich, stretching along the 6 provinces in the research area with a large annual food supply output. Therefore, the issue of water supply for agricultural development needs to be focused on more, especially farming practices, it is necessary to eliminate backward farming practices, improve science and technology, to minimize quality.
water resources as well as deploying more reasonable irrigation systems while still ensuring water security on the main stream of the Da River.
- Water security based on hydropower development criteria: with abundant water resources, the Da River mainstream is a basin with great potential for developing the electricity industry. Currently, large hydropower projects are located on the Da River mainstream; however, based on the level of water security analyzed above, the development of this energy source must ensure maximum limitation of water pollution and have specific measures, especially the construction of a system of interconnected reservoirs to maximize the supply of water shortages during the rainy season.
4. Conclusion
Water security is becoming one of the major challenges for the future. In addition to objective factors such as climate change and environmental degradation, the negative impacts of sustainable development policies and lack of visionary planning are among the main causes leading to this challenge.
Through ArcGIS 10.2.2 software, the project has built a water resources database on the main stream of the Da River, ensuring the provision of managers, statistics and forecasts of water security with a map scale of 1:100,000. This is the first step in forming a basic water resources database, thereby contributing to the effective use of water resources, ensuring sustainable development. Analysis of the results achieved in the study shows that water flow and impact level play a very important role in assessing the level of water security. Areas with seriously affected water sources are mainly concentrated in densely populated areas, where there are large industrial and economic clusters or dense vegetation. Meanwhile, the area of areas with less impact is mainly concentrated in sparsely populated areas.
where the economy is not yet developed much.
From the established water resources database, we can assess the level of water security in each province in the research area according to the criteria of hydropower and agricultural development. We can comment on the relationship between population concentration, development level in industrial zones, economic zones and water security level; the restoration and regeneration of water resources play an extremely important role. The results obtained in the study are an important source of information to help managers make forecasts and measures to minimize damage caused by human activities to water resources.
5. Recommendations
The data used to build the water resources database on the main stream of the Da River is not much, especially data on water resources; the existing data is only printed and cannot be used directly, so it takes a lot of time to edit, digitize and bring the map to the correct scale according to the research topic. This also greatly affects the time to complete the topic, so it is only possible to build a database with a moderate level of detail, the next research direction is to ensure the level of detail in the management, statistics and forecasting of water security. It is proposed to build a water security database at a scale of 1:25,000.

Summary:
1. Introduction
In the 21st century, water is ranked second only to human resources. At present, ensuring the security of water resources is considered the most important and urgent problem in all contents about the water. River water sources in many places are in danger of deterioration, depletion, sedimentation and salinity intrusion leading to the water supply for various human purposes becoming increasingly difficult and complicated. Therefore, the security of water resources is expressed through the specific criteria such as sustainable development, hydropower development, agricultural development ... are the typical criteria to help forecast that water is used by a reasonable way. Responding to these urgent needs requires a water resource database for management, assessment and forecasting of this particularly important resource. Therefore, the test of building a water resources database on the mainstream of the Da River with the title "Building a water resources database at the rate of 1: 100,000 to ensure water security on the main river of Da river" is a study in the right direction and is the basis for forecasting water security on the mainstream of Da river on development criteria for resources hydropower in particular and is a base to contribute to the assessment of water
in the basin in general.
Objectives is: To build a database on water resources in the Da River mainstream according to the current technical standards of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment with a view to build a database on water resources by information technology, specifically, the application of ArcGIS 10.2 .2 software package to design the database for the management of water resources on the Da River mainstream is the best tool for managing and adjusting the forecasting issues related to water security.
