TI: A Beach Monitoring Using Satellite Data, Airborne- and Ground-based LIDAR in the East Coast of Korea

Abstract

Studies on changes in coastlines and erosion/accumulation in the beach environments are actively being conducted. Various satellites and airborne remote sensing system are being used as a method of monitoring recent changes in the coasts. In this study, 2-D and 3-D morphologic changes have been investigated by IKONOS and Kompsat-2 MSC and measured by airborne and ground-based LIDAR system. These data and in situ measurements were conducted at the same time in the Ulgin coast area of the East Sea (Japan Sea) and compared to perform an accuracy analysis. Sedimentary facies results with ocean current data were also used for understanding of sedimentary processes in the beach area according to dyke construction.
