Abstract
This article presents the results of an analysis of the current management situation and current documents on administrative boundary management, thereby proposing a plan to determine administrative boundaries at sea (internal waters) for the main coastal province of Vietnam (the area from Binh Thuan province to Ca Mau province). The VN2000 national topographic map established, revised, and supplemented by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment was used to develop a plan to demarcate maritime boundaries. The research results provide suitable technical solutions for maritime boundary determination, taking into account the morphological characteristics of the coast, the management status, and according to the management documents of the Vietnamese state.
