Abstract
The present day water level fluctuations of the Caspian negatively affect on protected area located<br>along Coastal Line. For the Caspian Sea costal areas, it is highly important to make correct planning<br>of future coastal infrastructure and prediction of possible emergencies as a result of Caspian Sea<br>water level fluctuation. The main objective of this research is to present the up-to-date developed<br>method of how to predict the Caspian Sea Level fluctuation impact on the coastal areas by monitoring<br>visually results of Geographical Information System processing analysis based on the accurate<br>spatial data acquired from high-resolution stereo satellite imagery. As a result of this research it was<br>calculated the forecast what coastal areas of Absheron National Park will be flooded in cases of<br>Caspian Sea water level rises.
