*Coastal and Marine Surveillance with UAS*

Webinar ID: 328-037-427

*Abstract:*

Much research has been devoted to development of techniques to improve
airborne imaging of underwater features using traditional aircraft equipped
with metric-grade cameras. Small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) provide a
paradigm shift in efficiency and low cost aerial surveying of marine and
coastal zones compared to traditional methods. This presentation will show
emergent applications of UAS-based remote sensing and photogrammetry to
coastal and marine environments. Topics covered will include the following:
(1) structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry and optical inversion for
mapping littoral zones; (2) airborne fluid lensing for monitoring of
aquatic resources; (3) debris mapping and plastics identification. Time
permitting, additional examples on the emergent use of UAS for coastal and
marine surveillance will be presented.

*Fri, Jun 23, 2017 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EDT*

*Mapping the Great Lakes Coastal and Nearshore Realm: NOAA’s Lake Level
Viewer*

Webinar ID: 424-676-331

*Abstract:*

Mapping one of the most dynamic environments in the world, the Great Lakes
coastal and nearshore realm presents several challenges even with today’s
advancements in remote sensing technologies. This presentation will
highlight the work that is involved with data collection, processing, and
analysis to help in visualizing coastal and nearshore bathymetry and
topography of the Great Lakes and its use in understanding impacts from
lake level fluctuations. Additional discussion will focus on NOAA’s Lake
Level Viewer as a tool for users to visualize impacts, with a brief
demonstration, and how to access the data used behind the tool for use in
other mapping applications.
