sanzida Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 i want to draw a shore line for change detection analysis, but the problem is, shoreline is not continuous one, i mean its a high estuarine coast, many tidal creaks are there, so how do i draw a line, whether i will draw line upto further upland/ inland along with the tidal creeks,or just to draw the lower part of the land.is there any condition/ laws for shoreline drawing for this particular coast.

Lurker Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 you can make 2 different line to distinguish between low water or high water shoreline, here the example : http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/learnnc_shoreline.html Also I found interesting journal about shoreline mapping : http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/4300016?uid=3738224&uid=2134&uid=2&uid=70&uid=4&sid=21102572349117 you can read it online by register first for free or you may see this : http://www.gisarea.com/index.php?/topic/3517-shoreline-mapping-techniques/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
