Abstract • The modern remote sensing tools used in the coastal resource management will become one of the best alternatives to address the coastal vulnerability issues. • Approaches encompassed in the present work will present the recent development of an increased understanding over the coastal process on synoptic scale afferent Romanian shore, and will give the possibility of an advised selection of different solutions for protection and conservation of the area. • The work presents the certain spatial analysis approaches and results, developed in ArcGIS, based on RS and in situ data, towards an erosion control on the Romanian littoral, presently under intense changes at the sea-land interface, and it will be emphasized the result of the implementation of GIS and Remote sensing methods to some specific coastal management actions, including the implementation of the coastal zone delineation criteria in relation with the coastal geomorphologic processes and its driving forces. Index Terms: coastal zone sustainability, water quality, erosion processes, vulnerable areas, ICZM
