ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The coastal area of our community is very specific due to its natural and social characteristics. Its management can be very demanding. Having very precise spatial data about this area is therefore of essential importance. Evaluating the terrain is indispensable for spatial planning on both micro and macro levels, for supervision of “state of the art’’ and also for archaeological research. We have made an extremely precise snap-shot of the entire area. The snap-shot of the mainland was made with lidar technology, while the scan of sea bottom was made with multibeam sonar. From this data we developed various 3D models for several purposes. The 3D models are used for evaluation of archaeological sites, as a basis for municipal actions dealing with environment spatial plans and execution acts for defined areas. They can also be used for assessment of space based taxes and evaluation of parcels in public property. With these 3D models, the public administration has obtained a powerful tool to manage this very vulnerable and specific territory.
