The goal of Integrated Coastal Zone management (ICZM) is to establish social activity and sustainable levels of economic in the coastal areas while protecting the coastal environment. It brings together all those involved in the development, management and use of the coast within a framework that facilitates the integration of their interests and responsibilities. For this purpose in Iran,there is work on Application of GIS technology for ICZM and use the universal standard for example IHO in hydrographic or USGS in Geology and then design an integrated system that contains all available data and their relationship together. This model contains topography data, Geology, Ecology, Social, Facilities, Soils, Socio-Economic and the other descriptive and geospatial data. The conclusion is the best classification and layering of them and one integrated model have been also presented based on their implementation, topological relationships and logical distinction for maps objects.
