Abstract

The SHOALS system uses lidar technology to remotely measure bathymetry and topography in the coastal zone. During five years of survey operations, SHOALS has demonstrated airborne lidar bathymetry's benefits to the coastal community by providing a cost-effective tool for comprehensive assessment of coastal projects. This paper discusses the application of lidar technology for water-depth measurement, specifically outlining the SHOALS system and introducing a SHOALS survey from Saco River, ME.
