Erosion has worrying effects on the environment, infrastructure, lifelines, and buildings. Furthermore, climate change is exacerbating an already fragile situation. We are witnessing a high-risk situation and are convinced that this is the most appropriate time to focus on state-of-the-art remote sensing techniques for shoreline monitoring. The improvements in the spatial and spectral resolution of current and next generation satellite-based sensors and the significant progress in the spatial data processing identify remote sensing techniques that increase our knowledge of territory and coastline. This Special Issue aims to highlight an overview of all multiscale remote sensing techniques (e.g., high resolution images, photogrammetry, SAR, etc.) and a whole array of methods and techniques that process, analyse, and discuss multitemporal remotely sensed data. Thank you to all of our contributors and authors for their interesting and illuminating studies. Since this topic is complex and dynamic, we hope to develop this research with future works to form more cutting-edge studies.History of engineering and technologybicssc2100Abruzzoactive connection matrix (ACM)beach surveycanny edge detectorclimate changecoastlinecoastline extractioncoastline mappingcoastlinescoral reefsDGPS measurementsDSMedge detectiongeomaticshabitat mappinghabitat monitoringheritage siteshurricane Joaquinhurricane SandyJ-Net DynamicmangrovesMediterraneanmultispectral classificationn/anetwork RTKPyrgiremote sensingRemote Sensingsatellite imagessea level riseSentinel-1Sentinel-2SfM photogrammetryshorelineshoreline detectionshoreline extractionshoreline positionside-scan sonarstorm surgesswath bathymetrysynthetic aperture radar (SAR)UAVvideo camera observationvulnerable habitatsWorldView-2History of engineering and technologyDominici Donatellaedt1302274Dominici DonatellaothBOOK9910557546503321Remote Sensing in Coastline Detection3026325UNINA
