IMAGE INTERPRETATION OF COASTAL AREAS M. A. Lazaridou Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Civil Engineering Faculty, Lab. of Photogrammetry-Remote Sensing. P.O. Box 465, 541 24 Thessaloniki, Greece lazamari@civil.auth.gr Commission VIII KEY WORDS: Image, Interpretation, Optical, Coast, SPOT ABSTRACT: Coasts were formed with the overall shape of earth’s surface. They represent a landform, as determined by the science of geomorphology. Being the boundary between land and sea, they present important features — particularities such as water currents, waves, winds, estuaries, drainage network, pollution etc. Coasts are examined at various levels: continents — oceans, states — large seas, as for example Mediterranean Sea. Greece, because of its horizontal and vertical partitioning, presents great extent and variety of coasts as mainland, peninsulas and islands. Depending on geomorphology, geology, soils, hydrology, land use of the inland and the coasts themselves, these are very diverse. Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (defined by Statute II of ISPRS) is the art, science, and technology of obtaining reliable information from non-contact imaging and other sensor systems about the Earth and its environment, and other physical objects and of processes through recording, measuring, analyzing and representation. This paper concerns critical considerations on the above. It also includes the case of Thessaloniki coasts in Greece, particularly river estuaries areas (river delta). The study of coastal areas of the wide surroundings of Thessaloniki city includes visual image interpretation — digital image processing techniques on satellite data of high spatial resolution. 1. INTRODUCTION Coasts represent a landform, as determined by the science of geomorphology. They form the boundary between land and sea. Basic coastal features (geomorphologic, geologic, soil, hydrologic ones) reflect those of the respective inland. Horizontal and vertical partitioning of the Greek area favours the development of coasts at great extent in mainland and islands. Various multi-sided human activities (residential, touristic, cultural, etc.) and nature activities (formation of deltas, etc.) are developed in coastal areas. Consequently, coasts and generally coastal areas are of great importance and for this reason different scientific disciplines are involved in their study. In this paper, we search through the possibilities of visual interpretation of high resolution image data and enhanced image data on the study of coastal areas and particularly on the coastal area of the wide surroundings of the city of Thessaloniki in northern Greece. 2. STUDY AREA This paper concerns the coastal area of the wide surroundings of the city of Thessaloniki, figure 1. The coastline extends over a length around Thermaikos Gulf, at the central part of which, the urban area of Thessaloniki has been developed (figure 2, number 1). Other settlements, suburban areas, are located at the eastern part of the gulf (figure 2, number 2). At the western coast of Thermaikos Gulf, four rivers (Gallikos, Axios, Loudias, Aliakmonas) discharge, presented in figure 2 with numbers 3,4,5,6 respectively. The deltas of the above rivers form an extended wetland protected by Ramsar Convention. { BULGARIA C 4 T aro es p f t j cmm GREECE 1 Zz í Figure 1. The wider study area
