• Emphasis on nearshore surveys and the coastal hinterland has increased over the past few years.
• Generated by concerns over various issues, including:
• sea level rise due to climate change • directly-attributable man-made issues such as
land subsidence through extraction of valuable mineral and water resources;
• growth of, and reliance on, a seaborne Blue Economy delivering goods as efficiently as possible;
• concerns over erosion or damage to nearshore ecosystems necessitating additional focus on habitat mapping and environmental surveys in general
• an increasing percentage of the world’s human population residing in close proximity to the coast which places extra emphasis monitoring of this margin

Nearshore Mapping
• Where possible, the most cost effective approaches to mapping nearshore, high-impact coastlines – notwithstanding absolute accuracy standards - are:
• Remote sensing from wide-area satellite imagery ($)• Satellite Derived Bathymetry – SDB• Multispectral Imagery• Satellite Altimetry
• Airborne active sensor techniques ($$)• High-resolution RGB Photography• Hyperspectral Imagery• Topographic Lidar• Topo-Bathymetric Lidar• Bathymetric Lidar
• Traditional acoustic hydrographic survey techniques ($$$)• MBES, SBES, SSS etc.
• All of the above are affected in different ways by metocean conditions in the nearshore environment: water clarity, seabed colour and rugosity, platform dynamics and operational parameter windows etc.

Can we trust the cheapest option?
We can, if we apply an integrated approach….• SDB can provide very effective cost-effective and initial coverage of a suitable, clear-
water nearshore area• We can take the initial results and do at least three things:
• Use the data to provide reconnaissance information for follow-on, more easily quantifiable survey techniques (put an otherwise poorly charted area in focus)
• Conduct more discrete, higher-resolution surveys of the most critical areas for development or coastal defence/monitoring
• Use the active sensor data to refine the original SDB results to create a better-defined, integrated product which can start to attain accuracies acceptable to a wider stakeholder group
• We can also start to recognize the benefits of well-developed algorithms of satellite imagery to extract even more habitat info from the coastal zone.

• Many of the biggest changes seen during ALB surfaces are often at the coastline itself.
• Wholesale changes in topography and land usage are not uncommon

Summary
• Alternative solutions to the nearshore mapping of many areas are feasible• They will not always attain navigational charting standards• They don’t need to for non-charting agencies• We need to have an open mind as to how we better serve a greater stakeholder group• There are ways and means of improving initial results from SDB with iterative processes
utilizing ALB full waveform algorithms and a GT approach• There are ways and means of improving final coverage and data density which agrees
within a reasonable tolerance for the benefit of many clients• Key is to quantify what we have and apply appropriate risk to the data usage
