1 relative ntinü qui i pouvant ettant en terres et iponsables ssurer la tion. INTRODUCTION In the last five years there has been increasing interest in information about the coastal zone. The accident with the Exxon Valdez; the Green Plan, published by the federal department of the Environment; the report of the Committee on Land Use and the Rural Environment, released by the New Brunswick Government in April, 1993, the development of aquaculture; and the growing conflicts in the use of the marine environment; all point to the increasing urgency felt by many levels of government to better equip themselves to manage the coastal zone. Departments at both the federal and provincial level undertake data collection of land based data and water based data. This data is collected to support the mandates in those departments to manage resources. Private sector interests (oil industry, environmental consultants) also collect data, in order to make good business decisions, or to meet government requirements. Coastal data is a combination of water based data and land based data. There is momentum growing at all levels to better coordinate this collection of information, and to better exploit the potential of that already collected. The management of this data is changing in response to financial, environmental, and regulatory needs that did not exist 10 years ago. This paper will review the main differences between water based and land based data, will discuss the importance of standards to the proper exploitation of the value of the data already collected, and will review several projects underway to improve efficiencies in the collection of data and its management, focusing on recent efforts in Atlantic Canada to cooperate better at the federal, provincial and private sector levels in order to streamline the management of coastal data. The Canadian Hydrographic Service Atlantic is the collector of bathymetric information for the Atlantic Region. It is responsible for producing a range of products in order to insure safe navigation in Atlantic waters. The New Brunswick Geographic Information Corporation is a Crown Corporation charged with, among other things, providing basic geographic information for the province. The Land Information Management Service is a section of the Department of Municipal Affairs in Nova Scotia. It is charged with a range of objectives including the development and promotion of efficient collection, use and management of geo-referenced information. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LAND BASED AND WATER BASED DATA There are some fundamental differences between land and water based data. It is important to understand these differences in order to appreciate the challenges in trying to merge them in order to create a dataset suitable for managing coastal information. 49
