Traditional craftsmanship is perhaps the most tangible manifestation of intangible cultural heritage. Egypt s heritage in handicrafts is rich, unique and diversified, all stemming from its long history. The handicraft centers are available in all the governorates of Egypt. However, the management of the handicraft sector faces many problems, including the lack of: databases; coded products; and adequate marketing policy. This study presents the design and management of Remote Sensing, GIS and GPS applications to establish a geographic database for the handicrafts centers in the New Valley Governorate, Egypt. Also, it will link those centers with the archaeological heritage of the governorate. This study also presents a website s development to display all the collected data to be available to the public and help in the marketing process. a1110-9823
