2. An automated unmanned aerial vehicle – structure from motion pipeline to create analysis-ready digital surface models for coastal monitoring
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : Anthropogenic pressure on coastal areas continues to increase, thus intensifying coastal erosion. Coastal monitoring programs are therefore essential to prevent severe ecosystem and economic consequences. Successful coastal monitoring schemes require highly accurate analysis-ready Digital surface models (DSMs) derived using the same workflow. READ MORE
