区域、国家和地方湿地分类已经制定并成功应用。这些都是以养护和管理目标为导向的，而且这些信息用于评估湿地的丧失或确定管理的优先次序。现有的国家和区域分类系统不仅有用，而且为建立国际系统提供了重要基础。在国际一级，现有系统在湿地定义和如何界定湿地类型方面的差异非常重要，需要加以解决。分类是湿地资源调查的必要前提。已经进行了一些国际清查，尽管这些清查一般没有利用通过遥感和地理信息系统提供的现有高技术和数据储存系统。更广泛的国际清单将需要数据收集、储存和传播技术的标准化。最低限度的数据集需要根据数据准确性标准加以界定。需要在一个国际机构（例如国际水资源管理委员会、拉姆萨尔局、自然保护联盟）的主持下设立一个国际委员会，以制定一个国际分类系统和准则，对世界湿地进行全面清查。
Regional, national and local wetland classifications have been developed and successfully applied. These have invariably been orientated towards conservation and management goals, and the information used to assess wetland loss or to assign management priorities. Existing national and regional classification systems have not only been useful, but they provide an essential base for developing an international system. At the international level, differences among existing systems in the definition of a wetland and how wetland types are defined assume great importance and need to be resolved. Classification is an essential prerequisite for wetland inventory. A number of international inventories have been undertaken, although these have not generally utilized the available high technology and data storage systems available through remote sensing and geographic information systems. More extensive international inventories will require standardization of techniques for data collection, storage and dissemination. A minimum data set needs to be defined with standards for data accuracy. An international committee under the auspices of an international agency (e.g. IWRB, Ramsar Bureau, IUCN) needs to be established to develop an international classification system and guidelines for carrying out a complete inventory of the world's wetlands.
