  <abstract>Thailand's mangrove forests have been seriously  degraded, especially Chanthaburi Province. The requirement of  coastal resources master plan and appropriate management are  urgently established. Remote Sensing and Geographic Information  System (GIS) are effective tools that could be useful for  decision-making of monitor and management.  The study was carried out at Kung Krabaen Bay  Development and Study Center by using PAMAP geographic  information system, black and white aerial photographs and  satellite imagery. This study monitored the existing shrimp farm  and mangrove forest, including identified the suitable area for  shrimp farm and mangrove reforestation along Chanthaburi coastal  zone. A correlation analysis of the suitable area based on basic  physical and chemical factors such as soil type, pH, soil  texture, etc. the results could be beneficial for further  management of natural resources and the method could be applied  to other coastal zone in Thailand.</abstract>
