Application of Remote Sensing in Coastal Mapping

Remote sensing is important tool for mapping the different ecosystem of coastal area as it give synoptic views of an area retrieved through repetitive and multi-spectral remote sensing data, which can be useful for monitoring coastal areas. Coastal features are under threat from anthropogenic activities and climate change impact, so it necessary to monitor these ecosystem. The different mangrove and shoreline mapping technique using remote sensing has been discus for the better mapping of the coastal ecosystem.
