Synopsis:
The Theme Day will provide an overview of the state of the art of remote sensing of the coastal zone in the Netherlands. The presentations will cover morphological, ecological and water quality aspects, using satellite, airborne and near-surface (imaging) remote sensing . The aim is to raise awareness of the value of remote sensing capabilities both for scientific research and coastal management, and to identify opportunities for observing and monitoring the (Dutch) coast using remote sensing.
