<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I had started to do something similar for the Isle
of Wight using Landsat photos, but stopped once the shoreline data was posted on
the wiki.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However those that visited the Island last weekend
will be aware that parts of the SW coastline have been eroding a fast rate, and
it is likely that in places there may be as much as a 100m difference between a
1948 map and today</FONT></DIV>

shoreline</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Not sure if anyone's seen the EVS-Islands project that's trying
to<BR>create accurate shoreline maps for islands around the world
using<BR>recent Landsat data? See <A
href="http://evs-islands.blogspot.com/">http://evs-islands.blogspot.com/</A><BR><BR>I
mentioned the OSM and Isle of Wight to him a few days back and he's<BR>gone in
and spent some time creating the shoreline and also some
more<BR>classification information for the island. I think he's done
it<BR>outside of the project, but his blog says he's happy to share
the<BR>information. Perhaps we should pull in this improved
shoreline<BR>information for the Isle of Wight?<BR><A

also posted an interesting comparison of the OS-derived shoreline<BR>vs the
Landsat derived one<BR><A
