Monitoring Australia's coasts from space - Tackling coastal complexity using earth observation data

Created 03/03/2026

Updated 03/03/2026

Since 2015 Digital Earth Australia (DEA) has been producing continental scale earth observation (EO) products for the historical characterisation and ongoing monitoring of the Australian coastal region. Our products and workflows are focused on leveraging petabytes of analysis ready (ARD) EO data, innovative methods for dealing with noise and environmental variability, and a commitment to open-source code, methods and data access. This talk will introduce the complementary products and approaches we have used to tackle one of the most varied coastal and tidal environments in the world and demonstrate the wide range of uptake and use cases they have achieved across government, industry and academia.
