Coastal Remote Sensing Toolkit
Aim of the toolkit
The aim of this toolkit is to show managers, scientists and
technicians working in coastal environments how images collected
from satellites and aircraft (remote sensing) can be used
to map and monitor changes to indicators of coastal ecosystem
health.
Coastal environments
We recognise that "coastal environments"
encompass a broad range of ecosystems, however, this toolkit
focuses on coastal water bodies, seagrass and coral reefs,
and mangroves. A priority for future work is to extend the
toolkit to cover all other coastal ecosystems.
Passive remote sensing focus
This toolkit focuses on sensors that measure reflected sunlight
(passive systems), for more detail on active systems (e.g.
acoustic technologies) please refer to www.coastalzone.org.au/cwhm/Toolkit/index.html
