Unique permanent coastal observation detects minimal changes
A team of researchers from TU Delft has succeeded in long-term mapping of beach topography to within a few centimetres. The unique dataset provides insights into coastal changes for every hour, for three years. This data is important for dune maintenance and to keep the hinterland well protected. The methodology is also being used to monitor other coastlines and even glaciers. The data are open source and published in Nature, and the new methodology was also recently published.

For his master thesis, Civil Engineering master student Mathijs den Otter decided to focus on a method to test the visibility of road markings affected by external influences such as rain and low sun. And where better to do it than on the race track?
