IMIS - Marine Research Groups

Nine topographic measurement campaigns of the intertidal beach zones were performed between May 2016 and November 2018 at the study sites of Mariakerke-Bad (Oostende) and Groenendijk (Koksijde). The first, second, thirth, fifth and sixth campaign were performed at the study site of Mariakerke-Bad. The fourth, seventh and ninth campaign were completed at Groenendijk. 3D topographic data of the intertidal beach zone was acquired using a variety of measurement techniques including Mobile Terrestrial Laser Scanning (MTLS), UAV-Photogrammetry and RTK-GNSS profiling. All 22 data sets are provided in a human readable ASCII point cloud (X, Y, Z) format. Planimetric coordinates are measured in the Lambert72 (EPSG: 31370) Belgian National Grid and elevations are given towards the TAW orthometric height.
