Coastal Atlas Workshop Introduction

The Coastal Atlas Workshop, held at University College Cork on July 25, 2006, showcased a multi-disciplinary approach involving 21 projects and 22 researchers from fields such as Computer Science, Marine Geography, Engineering, and Environmental Management. The workshop emphasized knowledge and information management using GIS, remote sensing, and modeling technologies. Participants analyzed coastal atlases from Europe and the U.S. through SWOT assessments, focusing on technology, design, data issues, and institutional capacity. The event fostered collaboration through case studies and working group sessions, as well as synergies with various projects.
