1.2. Problem Definition
Coastal management plan is created to achieve sustainable coastal resources uses, and coastal ecosystem protection from disturbance including
pollution. It is not easy to maintain sustainable coastal resources, due to many conflicting interests among stakeholders, population, and government in
appropriate coastal development activities. Hence, recommendation of a master planning has to consider local government policy, population needs, and aspects
of economic, ecology, and socio-culture. It is a complex process involving multiple decisions that may relate to biophysical, socio-economic and
institutionalorganizational aspects. Remote sensing and Geographical Information System GIS have often
been used in coastal master planning that have related to zoning and land suitability analysis. Usage of these technologies is one of solutions to answer the
challenge of coastal data base uses. Integration of remote sensing, GIS and spatial multi criteria decision
making were used to support coastal master planning for a sustainable coastal management. This thesis will answer the following questions:
a. How to acquire physical and non-physical land characteristic to determine zonation of coastal ecosystem using remote sensing techniques,
b. How to develop coastal master planning based on coastal ecosystem zonation and land evaluation its suitability using GIS analysis, and
c. How to give the best solution alternatives to coastal master planning development using spatial multi criteria decision-making for a sustainable
coastal management.

1.3. Objectives
Based on the questions above, research objectives are the following: a. to classify coastal zone as a first step to create coastal master planning
based on coastal land characteristics, b. to implement remote sensing and GIS techniques for spatial data building
and to find particularly suitable area for particular uses aqua marine cultivation, fishing activities, and tourism in Maros by identifying coastal
resources capacities and its land suitability, c. to identify conflicting area between its suitability and existing landuse,
d. to develop a coastal master planning using spatial multi criteria decision making for a sustainable coastal management.
