🛰️ Satellite-Derived Coastal Monitoring all around Australia! 🌊🏖️
The #CoastSat dataset now includes shoreline time-series for beaches all around Australia and Tasmania. It now includes #WesternAustralia, #SouthAustralia and #Tasmania.

🛰️ Big update to the CoastSat shoreline dataset — now spans 1984 to May 2025! 🌊
New data shows major erosion from Cyclone Alfred (March 2025) in southern Queensland, Australia — up to 50m retreat in some areas!

#CoastSat #CoastalErosion #RemoteSensing
A satellite image of the shoreline in Monterey Bay, CA. White water from breaking waves along the shore is broken up by blue rip current channels. A black line along the boundary between the beach and the ocean shows a rhythmic sinusoidal like pattern with troughs aligned with the rip current channels.
Did you know we can see the fingerprints of rip currents from space? Well, we can now! Stop by our #AGU24 poster Monday morning to hear about the dataset we created using six years of PlanetScope imagery, which includes over 2,000 #CoastSat mapped images from three sites, and see what we learned :)
