Feasibility study for monitoring gravel islands in Wachau using UAV
Abstract
In the years 2008-2017, approx. 990,000 m³ of gravel were used to fill gravel islands. These islands represent a suitable instrument for the ecological improvement of the Danube riverbanks and the support of the Natura 2000 protected areas in the Wachau. The aim of this study is the monitoring of gravel islands regarding the development of the Natura 2000 protected areas. In this feasibility study it is investigated how UAV images can be used to record the vegetation and the composition of the abiotic surface substrate.The aim is to develop a concept for the monitoring of the islands (technical equipment, recording methods, interval, evaluation methods, etc.).
