In coastal areas, EO is capable to monitor water depth and shallow water bathymetry (charting), coastal ecosystem parameters about water temperature, water transparency, oxygen, phytoplankton abundance, bathing water indicators, detection harmful algal blooms, sediment (qualitative, quantitative), turbidity (quality, quantitative), visibility, chlorophyll-a concentration, suspended sediment may be indicative of estuarine processes, re-suspension or pollution. Further, this includes coastline monitoring with a focus on shoreline and its change as well as coastal land cover (and terrain) and its change. A widse set of EO sensors and technologies is used to monitor coastal areas. Optical satellite imagery is analyzed to detect and map suspended sediment concentrations. Etc.
