CIRN Quantitative Coastal Imaging Toolbox

The Coastal Imaging Research Network (CIRN)’s Quantitative Coastal Imaging Toolbox is a collection of MATLAB scripts to produce georectified images specifically tailored for quantitative analysis of coastal environments. The repository contains scripts that perform end-to-end georectification of oblique imagery from land-based multi/single-camera stations or stationary Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). The toolbox produces georectified frames, ensemble statistical products, and subsampled pixel collections for optical wave, current and bathymetric inversion analyses. While experts have employed similar scripts operationally for years, this toolbox is for photogrammetry novices. Illustrative example scripts with demonstrative data teach fundamentals and can be easily transitioned to operational processing.
