AbstractThe Isle of Wight Council commissioned this study to help improve the Council's understanding of coastal risk. The aim of the study is to provide a tool to help assess the potential risk to coastal sites. The key to the project is the creation of detailed coastal maps for which, because of the difficulties of surveyor interpretation, analysis of aerial photography is preferred over the use of historic maps. The study will allow an assessment of the coastal changes that has taken place and will assist coastal planning generally
