1 © NERC All rights reserved BGS Coastal Mapping Keith Westhead

2 © NERC All rights reserved Coastal mapping pilot area – Dorset Coast, S England Collaboration with MAREMAP partners, CCO, Uni Southampton Lidar, Bathymetry etc. and geological mapping

3 © NERC All rights reserved Aerial Lidar stitched to nearshore bathymetry (1m resolution)

4 © NERC All rights reserved Draped with 1:10k BGS geological mapping

5 © NERC All rights reserved Geological mapping extended offshore through ‘White Ribbon’ Better understanding of full ‘coastal zone’

6 © NERC All rights reserved Better 3D geology & coastal hazard analysis e.g. landslides, erosion, flooding Infrastructure, heritage, tourism, planning etc.

7 © NERC All rights reserved Targeted high resolution ground-based laser-scanning E.g. landslide complexes

8 © NERC All rights reserved SUMMARY - Current focus: Coastal zone geological mapping & 3D modelling, to underpin: Cliff instability modelling Coastal retreat/RSL modelling Societal impacts in coastal zone
