The article presents the developed method for determining the parameters of the bottom sediments that allow obtaining the express data on the concentration and size composition of suspended particles in water. The method is based on the use of high-speed photography of the aquatic environment. A special feature of the method is its operability under considerable dynamic activity of water masses and high concentration of suspended matter of terrigenous origin in the coastal zone. A brief description of the developed technical means design intended for the method approbation is given. The designed software operation principle is described, that allows determining the particles length frequency on the images and calculating the suspension concentration for a given volume. The method approbation results in a laboratory environment are presented.
