2 Study area Conero Mount PESARO NE ANCONA E SE -The whole Marche coastline has a length of ca. 172 km: 28 km of cliff coast and 144 km of beaches SAN BENEDETTO D.T. - The study area has a length of ca. 74 km - Orientation NNO-SSE Tronto River - Normally the littoral sediment drift goes from S to N

5 Digital Shoreline Analisys System - DSAS - The Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) is a GIS-based software computing rate-ofchange statistics from multiple historic shoreline positions. It is also useful for computing rates of change for any other fluctuation problem involving clearly identified feature positions at discrete times. DSAS generates transects casted perpendicular to the baseline with a user-specified spacing alongshore. Transect/shoreline intersections along this baseline are then used to calculate rate-of-change statistics.

17 Monitoring of S. Benedetto del Tronto coastline: Geographical information system for data management ESRI ArcGIS 9.3 upgradability integration multidisciplinary creation of thematic maps previous data vectorial and raster data Multitemporality & Storage
18 Monitoring of S.Benedetto del Tronto coastline 1) Sedimentological analysis FINE SAND 2) GPS survey of the coastline 3) Bathymetric survey
19 GPS survey of the coastline
20 GPS survey of the coastline
21 Bathymetric survey
22 Possible causes of erosion
23 Possible causes of erosion
24 Conclusions A complete and homogeneous database has been realized. It allows to obtain a multidisciplinary, multitemporal and multiscale analysis. The historical evolution analysis of the coastline is the first step to set up a beach monitoring, aimed to individuate the possible erosion processes and planning future events.
