    This map was produced using data from the South-west Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme, commissioned by Teignbridge District Council, in this case covering the coastline between Rame Head and Lands End. Through conducting a range of surveys including aerial, bathymetric, wave and tidal surveys, and ecological mapping, the programme aims to promote and implement a repeatable, standard, and cost-effective method of monitoring the coastal environment. This map is the result of the ecological mapping component of the programme, and the habitat data is presented as vector polygons using the EUNIS 2007-11 habitat classification scheme.

    This map was produced using data from the North East Coastal Monitoring Programme, commissioned by Scarborough Borough Council. Through conducting a range of surveys including aerial, bathymetric, wave and tidal surveys, and ecological mapping, the programme aims to promote and implement a repeatable, standard, and cost-effective method of monitoring the coastal environment. This map is the result of the ecological mapping component of the programme, specifically the habitat map produced from 1940s aerial photography. The habitat data is presented as vector polygons using the EUNIS 2007-11 habitat classification scheme.

    Within the last 5 years, widespread uptake of multi-beam sonar technology within the offshore survey industry has meant that swath bathymetry is becoming economic even within the nearshore region. As a result, the Southeast Strategic Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme has been able to upgrade their single-beam bathymetric surveys to achieve 100% seafloor coverage to IHO Order 1a standard through collaboration with the Maritime and Coastguard Agencyâ??s Civil Hydrography Programme. Although the main purpose is to survey the bathymetry of the seabed, the full coverage bathymetry combined with acoustic backscatter information collected during the swath bathymetry survey can be integrated with ground-truthing information to produce a series of detailed maps.
