Book An Aerial Photographic Technique for Beach Erosion Surveys in North Carolina

Download or read book An Aerial Photographic Technique for Beach Erosion Surveys in North Carolina written by Donald B. Stafford and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study presents a procedure developed to use existing aerial photographs to survey beach erosion. The use of the procedure is illustrated by data from Onslow and Carteret Counties in North Carolina. A preliminary evaluation of the results obtained in these two counties is given. The procedure is applicable to a variety of conditions and has important advantages over other methods of collecting beach erosion data. The procedure consists of selecting stable reference points on aerial photographs taken in different years and measuring between the stable reference points and points on the transient beach. The measurements are converted to ground distances, and the difference in ground distance is computed. The difference in ground distance represents the change in location of the beach between the dates of the aerial photographs and is converted to an annual rate of change by dividing by the time interval. The change in two locations on the beach, the dune line and the high water line, is determined. (Author).

Book Laser Scanning for the Environmental Sciences

Download or read book Laser Scanning for the Environmental Sciences written by George Heritage and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-05-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 3D surface representation has long been a source of information describing surface character and facilitating an understanding of system dynamics from micro-scale (e.g. sand transport) to macro-scale (e.g. drainage channel network evolution). Data collection has been achieved through field mapping techniques and the use of remotely sensed data. Advances in this latter field have been considerable in recent years with new rapid-acquisition methods being developed centered around laser based technology. The advent of airborne and field based laser scanning instruments has allowed researchers to collect high density accurate data sets and these are revealing a wealth of new information and generating important new ideas concerning terrain characterisation and landform dynamics. The proposed book collates a series of invited peer revieved papers presented at the a conference on geoinformatics and LIDAR to be held at the National Centre for Geocomputation based in the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. Current constraints in field survey and DEM construction are reviewed together with technical and applied issues around the new technology. The utility of the data in process modelling is also covered. The book will be of great value to researchers in the field of geomorphology, geostatistics, remote sensing and GIS and will prove extremely useful to students and practitioners concerned with terrain analysis. The proposed work will: Highlight major technological breakthrough in 3D data collection. Feature examples of application across a wide range of environmental areas. Critically evaluate the role of laser based techniques in the environment. Detail theory and application of laser techniques in the natural environment.
