Objective

• To put in touch state-of-the-art GI Technology
  with Integrated Coastal Zone Management and
  Coastal Landscape study
• To address this objective through main streams of
  coastal disciplines implemented by working groups
  and run in a series of chained events

Our addressing reference

• ICAM-GI network
• Vital role of coastal areas (ecological,
  economical social and cultural)
• Sensitivity either for environmental or for
  social issues.
• Some problems
• for the natural features coastal erosion, loss
  of biodiversity, declining of resource,
  pollution/degradation of water quality
• for the human sphere conflicts for the use of
  coastal resources, disregarding of material and
  non-material cultural heritage, deep changes in
  lifestyle (e.g. due to tourism)
• The after-COASTGIS03 and now also Oceans 21

ICCOPS Landscape, Natural and Cultural Heritage
Observatory (International Centre for Coastal and
Ocean Policy Studies) http//www.iccops.it

• Association founded in 1992 to promote the
  protection and improvement of the environment, in
  particular sustainable development of ocean and
  coastal areas in conformity with the UNCED Agenda
  21, Chapter 17
• Main objectives are
• to discuss the issues of Integrated Coastal
  Management (methodology, usage) and of landscape
  under the reference of the EU and UNEP policy,
  especially MAP
• to contribute to experiences of coastal and
  landscape planning and management under the
  paradigm of sustainability
• to characterise new ways for re-qualification
  practices of decayed coastal areas
• to inventor/monitor initiatives for the active
  safeguard of landscape and for the improvement of
  daily-life landscape quality
• This is done with
• scientific studies and advice on all the
  different aspects of coastal systems
• landscape planning and evaluation
• initiatives for training and education, also to
  improve sharing of knowledge and skills and
  transfer of guidelines and directives in the
  field of ICAM
• organisation of scientific events and
  international networking

  for an interdisciplinary, science based local
  management
• integration of thematic research under the
  paradigm of GeoInformation and Coastal Landscape
• creation of a comprehensive training environment

About distinguishing addresses

• relevance of coastal landscape, unifying element
  and resource
• interdisciplinary approach through the
  integration of sectoral achievements
• high scientific level
• transfer of knowledge and principles from
  intergovernmental organisations and scientific
  environments to national local realities
• transfer of knowledge and experience from expert
  scientists to early stage researchers
• supply local operators or administrators with an
  opportunity of education

About some characters

• collecting at international level the expertise
  of scientists and addressing it towards users
• supporting decision making by the authorities in
  charge for planning and control
• increasing effective impact of sectorial projects
• putting together a sound mix of academics,
  decision makers and IT experts.
• disseminating the work
• dealing with trans-boundary issues, for which a
  specific community policy is not defined yet

Working GroupsWG1 Building Coastal Knowledge
and GI

• A key issue to get ICM objectives is
  availability and easy accessibility of
  appropriate data and information. Main points
  are
• collection of data on a scientific base
• quick elaboration of raw data
• possibility of continuous update
• sharing information and making it suitable for
  final user
• GI comprehensive tools are essentials new ways
  for data collection and sharing, Internet access
  ...
• Important
• an integrated approach cannot leave the
  stakeholders needs out of consideration
• information related with natural disciplines have
  to be integrated with data deriving from human
  sciences

Working Groups WG2 Coastal Governance, Planning
and Design and GI

• It deals about sustainable management of coastal
  resources, through ICM programmes that pass
  through the steps
• governance definition of the policies for the
  coastal area, choices/needs for ICM its general
  objectives.
• planning strategies, specific objectives,
  extension of the intervention in an operational
  perspective (integration among scientists,
  actors, planners and decision makers is
  essential)
• design specific actions. The scale is often
  local and integration is required especially
  towards local communities.
• A comprehensive view is ensured by GIS technique
  and GIS are a dynamic tool to face evolving
  situations. GIS are also a useful way to keep
  them in touch with operators and planners at
  local level

Working Groups WG3 The Waterfront Management
and GI

• Waterfronts are subject to high human pressure
  and to a multitude of uses a lot of coastal
  towns developed in interdependence with the sea
  and their waterfronts are evidence of their
  evolution other coastal areas try to ensure a
  harmonic development of their waterfronts
• GIS are particularly suited, e.g. to manage
  inputs by actors, for tuning the programme and
  creation of scenarios
• To be pointed out
• waterfronts are object of ICM programmes at
  different scales, from architectonic projects to
  comprehensive planning interventions
• waterfronts are dynamic areas, subject to
  continue changes by either local or global
  causes their management needs to be adapted to
  their development

Working Groups Working Group on GI technology

• A cross-cutting Working Group deals with the
  technological features of GI
• ECO-IMAGINE initiative is an opportunity for
  tuning up GI technologies and research on the
  actual needs of coastal management and to set up
  the bases for transferable models of shared
  information and data sets
• For ICM experts it is a chance for a general view
  of the opportunities supplied by GIS technology

• three training courses (tutorials, case studies,
  simulation exercises, field trips) to introduce
  to the use of GIS for ICM
• the final conference that sums up the working

ECO-IMAGINE - European Conferences and Forum for
Integrated Coastal Management and Geo-information
Research Working Group Conference Coastal
Governance, Planning and Design and GI

• In this Conference we assign a great importance
  to the workshops organised in collaboration with
  the Genova Municipality and with the Regione
  Liguria for two reasons
• they allow an introductory but rather organic
  sketch of our local situation, matching
  observation of its reality with the presentation
  of plans and project
• to show the real work of the Authorities in
  charge can be highly profitable for researchers
