Author(s): Alvaro Martinez

To know with certainty the characteristics of the Colombian coast lines, as well as the limit between State property terrains (public use goods) and the private property is of great importance for the National Maritime community, as well as Colombians who want to develop maritime activities and the General Maritime Direction. Nevertheless, to ensure this information, technical, administrative and juridical elements are required to be integrally approached. This presentation issues the current problems and proposes from a technical point of view, an operatively viable solution, based on state of the art technology for the acquisition and management of spatial information (As LIDAR, SIG, Others), in order to elaborate the cartographic base for these spaces to be defined, as well as contributing to the production of fundamental data the Colombia.
