Noosa, QLD conducts drone mapping trial in support of its Coastal Monitoring Plan
Noosa, QLD Coastal Monitoring Plan Drone Mapping Trial
Complete
The plan calls for an integrated data collection process for shoreline conditions on the Eastern Beaches. Shire officials worked with National Drones on an aerial mapping project along the coast. Drones gathered data on shoreline position, beach volume, and vegetation density using LiDAR and photogrammetry. Drone maps, citizen science projects, ATV surveys, and echo sounding inform projections of coastal erosion by 2040, 2070, and 2100.
