  abstract = {{T}he {SYSCOLAG} programme is a pilot operation at national level for experimenting with a knowledge-pooling system applied to the field of integrated coastal area management ({ICAM}). {SYSCOLAG} aims to constitute an interface between 'knowledge' and the users of knowledge' on questions related to the conservation and the development of the coastal zone of the {L}anguedoc-{R}oussillon. {T}o that end, {SYSCOLAG} offers both a transdisciplinary approach associating life sciences, earth sciences, social and informatic sciences and multistakeholders approach (associating scientists, decision-makers, professional users of the sea, environmental protection associations, and the general public) to integrated management of the coastal zone of the {L}anguedoc-{R}oussillon. {T}he system developed in this programme is based on know-how (particularly in integrated expertise and information systems) and an array of innovative information processing tools dedicated to a public of experts and for the general public. {T}o date, {SYSCOLAG} has provided a basis for federating the multidisciplinary teams from various organisations concerned by issues related to this coastal zone. {I}n addition, it has contributed to the improvement of communication between the scientific community and other coastal zone stakeholders, and in particular, with the local management organisations.},
