Determination of Caspian Sea Coastal Changes Using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Summary: Studying the dynamic changes in the coastline of the northeastern Caspian Sea is significant due to the instability of the Caspian water level and the potential damages to the coastal ecology, economy, and population in Kazakhstan. This study utilizes remote sensing and GIS technologies to investigate coastline changes and predict flooding events. The proposed methodology for dynamic map creation can be applied for coastline monitoring and flood extent forecasting.

Summary: Climate change leads to irregular changes in coastal areas, which can be monitored and analyzed using remote sensing methods. The DSAS tool and statistical methods play an important role in monitoring and analyzing these changes.
