11 th International Symposium for GIS and Computer Cartography for Coastal Zones Management(such as Geovisor and CLIMARES webpage services), it may facilitate consultation by differentstakeholders and directly support decision-making process in sectors affected by climate change effects(Vides et al., 2013). CLIMARES is being tested by local authorities.ConclusionsVisualization tools help inform vulnerability assessment and adaptation guidelines includingrequirements and approval from all stakeholders involved in the coastal study area. INVEMAR and theirlocal, national and international partners hope that these visualization tools will establish an example forColombia (and urban coastal cities beyond) of how these techniques based on GIS, Geomatics andGeodesy are supporting land use planning and adaptation processes using a pilot site like Cartagena deIndias urban city located in the Colombian Caribbean coast. This research is ongoing, particularly interms of incorporating information and disseminating it across local and national stakeholder groups inorder to test and improve CLIMARES webpage and Geovisor.AcknowledgmentsThe Marine and Coastal Research Institute (INVEMAR), Mayor of Cartagena de Indias, CDKN,Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (MADS), Cámara de Comercio, and all Local andNational Environmental Entities who are supporting and are supported by Geovisor and CLIMARESwebsite services.“Part of the results include in this paper is an output from a project funded by the UK Department forInternational Development (DFID) for the benefit of developing countries.
