The ensuring of security in the coastal area makes the researches towards building geospatial information infrastructure are necessary. The presentation shows the results of building this infrastructure by integrating electronic navigational chart (ENC) with photo chart as well as with hydrodynamic and meteorological data from numerical models. Work was concentrated on integrate data distributed in different formats. To use appropriate conventions and NetCDF format helped in a simple way enter a multi-dimensional geospatial information from numerical models into the ArcGIS system and allow for easy visualization their. The possibilities of using this applications to search and rescue (SAR) in the coastal zone was tested by comparing the simulated results in an ArcGIS with those obtained during experiments in reality. The research were made in the development project No. O R00 0105 11 financed by the Polish National Centre for Research and Development.
