The main aim of the thesis is the analysis of the naturaldisastrous effects on
the area of the North Peloponnesus by using GeographicalInformation Systems
(GIS).Initially, the present status of the North Peloponnesus’ coastline was
studied and recorded.The relevant historical maps were collected and digitised
by using the Arc GIS 9.3, ESRI software.Field work revealed numerous problems
in the wider area.Rivers with significant sediment yield are flown into the
wider coast area.The presence of landslides and the effects of wave action are
the two major problems that this thesis analysis.Historical aerial photos were
