Fig. 8: Horizontal accuracy of SDS algorithms relative to the observed magnitudes of shoreline change.

From: Benchmarking satellite-derived shoreline mapping algorithms

Fig. 8

a Duck; (b) Narrabeen; (c) Torrey Pines; (d) Truc Vert. The histogram shows the absolute shoreline positions based on the in situ surveys along the selected transects at each study site. The vertical lines indicate the respective standard deviation error averaged across the 5 SDS algorithms. The portion of shoreline changes that are larger than the SDS horizontal accuracy is indicated as a percentage in the text box: 32% at Duck, 55% at Narrabeen, 41% at Torrey Pines and 18% at Truc Vert.
