Monitoring of coastline change using Sentinel-2A and Landsat 8 data, a case study of Cam Pha city - Quang Ninh province

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance Sentinel - 2A and Landsat 8 data in monitoring coastline change from 1999 2018 at Cam Pha city, Quang Ninh province. Both were collected under similar conditions time weather features minimize differences interpretation results caused by these factors. was extracted Sentinel-2A using Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI). Coastline map Department Natural Resources Environment with a scale 1: 50.000 used as reference same mask overlaid on maps identify changes area. fieldwork Google Earth accuracy make comparative comments. presented that dramatically occurred between accretion process prevailing. This took place quite strongly East Southeast coast while erosion only small areas scattered points also showed overall classification imagery (95.0%) slightly higher than Landsat-8 (87.5%). combined use Landsat-Sentinel-2 expected generate reliable records for continuous detecting changes.
