Advanced Techniques for Mapping Biophysical Environments on Carbonate Banks Using Laser Airborne Depth Sounding (LADS) and IKONOS Satellite Imagery

Latitudinal and Situational Zonation of Coastal Catenary Sequences Observed from Satellite Images Using the Biophysical Cross-shore Classification System (BCCS)

“…If more information is still required after CES formulation, then preparation of a complete header and extended image caption is initiated per instructions in the BCCS (Finkl and Makowski, 2020). This latter stage is heavily based on geovisual analytics, where image interpretation techniques (e.g., Costa, 2019;Finkl andMakowski, 2015, 2019a,b;Finkl, Makowski, and Vollmer, 2014;Klemas, Bartlett, and Rogers, 1975;Klemas et al, 1993;León-Pérez, Herná ndez, and Armstrong, 2019;Makowski, 2014;Makowski, Finkl, and Vollmer, 2015, 2016Patias et al, 2018) are merged with the collation of collateral data from various sources on the Internet or in reference books. Procedures for this aspect involve referencing an environmental classification system or regionalization that has already been devised (e.g., Bailey, 1998;Bartley, Buddemeier, and Bennett, 2001;Burke et al, 2001;Dolan et al, 1972;Hayden, Ray, and Dolan, 1984;Klemas et al, 1993;Makowski, 2014;Makowski, Finkl, and Vollmer, 2015, 2016Makowski et al, 2009;Sherman, Aquarone, and Adams, 2009;Zhang et al, 2011) to assist with descriptions of the extant terrestrial and marine portions of a satellite image.…”
