Overview on Remote Sensing Application for Coastal
Environmental Study in Viet Nam1. Institution network dealing with remote sensing applicationAt ministry level, there are 7 agencies as follows:• National Center for Natural Science and Technology (NCST)• Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD)• Ministry of Fishery (MOFI)• Ministry of Industry (MI)• General Department of Land Administration (GDLA)• Ministry of Construction (MC)• Hydrology and Meteorological Service of Vietnam (HMS)In NCST there are 8 institutes with departments for remote sensing application:
Institute of Physics (IP) - Space Technology Application Center (STAC), Institute of Geography (IG), Institute of Geology (IGL), Hai Phong Institute of Oceanology (HIO), Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources (IEBR) and Ha Noi Branch of Institue of Oceanography.
In several universities, there are divisions of remote sensing application for educational purposes.

Concept Proposal• Urgent need:
In Viet Nam, there are many institutions and agencies dealing with remote sensing as mentioned above. But the application of remote sensing for monitoring environment, particularly for coastal zone at almost institutions is still at the beginning. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop the application of remote sensing and GIS to integrated environment monitoring. As an initiative, a project on coastal environment monitoring using remote sensing and GIS techniques in Viet Nam needs to be formulated to set up the first step towards the modern tool application to sustainable development.
• Goal To strengthen capacity for institutions and agencies of Viet Nam to meet regional level and requirements in using remote sensing and GIS techniques for coastal environment monitoring.
• ImplementationIn stages in accordance with the regional program, specific objectives and outputs as well as participating agencies will be set out.
• Financial supportsFrom the APN and some contributions from the governments or international organizations.
