【 摘 要 】

This contribution addresses both the role of geographical information in participatory research of coastal zones, and its potential to bridge the gap betweenresearch and coastal zone management. Over a one year period, heterogeneous data(spatial, temporal, qualitative and quantitative) were obtained which included the process of interviews, storing in a spatio-temporal database. The GIS (Geographic Information System) produced temporal snapshots of daily human activity patterns allowing it to map, identify and quantify potential space-time conflicts between activities. It was furthermore used to facilitate the exchange of ideas and knowledge at various levels: by mapping, simulation, GIS analysis and data collection. Results indicated that both captured dataand the participatory workshop added real value to management and therefore it was deemed well managed by stakeholders. To incorporate a dynamic GIS would enhancepro-active integrated management by opening the path for better discussions whilst permitting management simulated scenarios.
