Total Station - Topographic beach profiles, Reunion island

IR ILICO | SNO Dynalit
Source

The beach profile is a sectional representation of its topography. The beach topography and its dynamics (by beach profile or transect approach) is illustrated by the acquisition of altimetry data along a fixed profile. 42 profiles are regularly monitored on the reef coast of Reunion Island: 2 profiles per year before the swell seasons of summer and austral winter; the impact of the events of strong swells (cyclones, southern swells) is systematically measured on the labeled Dynalit sites and more sporadically on the other sites. The methodology deployed locally since 2012.
