Coastal areas have been the target of interdisciplinary research aiming to support studies related their socio-economic and ecological value role in protecting backshore ecosystems assets from coastal erosion flooding. Some these focus on either onshore or inshore using sensors collecting valuable information that remains unknown untapped by other researchers. This demonstrates how satellite, aerial, terrestrial marine remote sensing techniques can be integrated inter-validated produce accurate information, bridging methodologies with different scope. High-resolution data Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) multispectral satellite imagery, capturing environment, were utilized extract underwater Coral Bay (Cyprus). These systematically hydroacoustic including bathymetric side scan sonar measurements as well ground-truthing methods such drop camera surveys sample collection. Onshore, digital elevation models derived UAV observations revealed significant shoreline changes over a one-year period, demonstrating clear evidence beach modifications highlighting zone dynamics. Temporal comparisons cross-section analyses displayed variations reaching up 0.60 m. Terrestrial laser scanning along restricted sea cliff at edge captured fine-scale geomorphological arise considerations for stability residential properties top cliff. Bathymetric estimations PlanetScope Sentinel 2 imagery returned accuracies ranging 0.92 1.52 m, whilst reached 1.02 Habitat classification diverse substrates, providing detailed geoinformation existing sediment type distribution. achieved 89% accuracy habitat mapping, outperforming 83% underscoring high-resolution assessments. study emphasizes necessity extracting integrating all available complete mapping would sustainable management strategies.
