Abstract

 For better planning of coastal protection and conservation strategies, development of frequent monitoring of shoareline change is one of important tasks in the field of coastal engineering. Among various satellite data, synthetic aperture radar, SAR, can be considered as one of promissing options for cost-effective monitoring of the shoreline. Because SAR is not affected by cloud coverage and does not require sunlight, it is suitable for frequent observation. This study analyzed a large number of SAR scenes to investigate how various monitoring parameters affect the shoreline detection skills. It was found through the analysis that the most important parameter is the grain size of the bet materials and SAR can be applied for shoreline monitoring under appropriate monitoring conditions.
