The effects that climatic changes might trigger in coastal areas affect more than a particular region hence the need far an lISSeSSIIl£1lI.of the impact the sea level might have an the population and its activities. To help do this, 8 project was started for the developmentof a l1lflIlf´Igemar progtannne covering the Colorado river through to Quequen river stuary. Il lnrge sector of the Buenos Airesprovince´s coastalarea in Argeetioe.Tbe studyaroa bas 8 high degree of urban development, interspersed wi1b rural zones, so the noed of using techniques that CIII1 relatethe differentinteracting VllriBbtes in those areas and allows the planning and roanagemeat of thislciod of environment The first stagewas the creation of an in GIS ARC- Info structure. The infonnation comprises differal1 layers of subjects on e small ares ~d,relati:ng the c.lurn!cte:rist of coastal areas and its interactions with In1and regions.The digitalization of cartographic documents, given the interest of the geomorphology of the coastal srea, W!lll kept in 1:5D,OOO. Arecoanaisance flight was made, with filming of the roue which gave II better reference level regarding thesubject. On 8 second stage,satellite images from the TM sensor will be digitBlly classified regurding use and covering, completing this task with utilization ofaerial photography, including images from other sensorsand different dates.
